Don't Wake Me

from While You Sleep by Bird by Bird

/

lyrics

The daylight, it's exhilarating
The sun shines life... But not for me
It's a sharp knife
Been penetrating my precious sleep
Like the birds and the bees
The birds in the trees keep singing

Don't wake, don't wake me even if I'm screaming
I'm in paradise getting some
Don't wait, don't wait for me when I'm dreaming
Just keep on screaming
Don't wake me yet

In the night light, all the shapes created
Too much moonshine shakes what you see in the wall
When I take flight, lord I'm elevated
Backflip off a wall having a ball
Then a shake and a sprawl, I awake from a fall.
But still singing...

Hold on tight, to the last words we speak
Hold on tight, be careful counting sheep
Be careful. Don't count on me!
