NOTE: This song was written for the competition at Nur Ein, where artists compete with each other each week using the song title the site gives out. The title for the week I entered was "Sleepwalking", so that is how the song got its name. The song also had to have a "crescendo" in it.
Sleepwalking
=============
I stumble my way
through paths in a maze
can't look towards the light
from under the haze
No laughs, no excitement
embrace the humdrum
trading pleasure and pain
for comfortably numb
Chorus
=====================
Sleepwalking by day
Sleepwalking at night
there's something inside
oh let it take flight
Sleepwalking around
through the halls of your life
unlock the door
and let it take flight
=====================
I pull back the scab
to see if I bleed
as time ticks away
we yearn to be free
I don't hear a word
though voices keep talking
just going through the motions
inside I'm sleepwalking
Chorus
=====================
Sleepwalking by day
Sleepwalking at night
there's something inside
oh let it take flight
Sleepwalking around
through the halls of your life
unlock the door
and let it take flight
=====================
and then I found you
and then I found you
Since I found you
I've been wide awake
like the world
I'd lived in was fake
I breath and
suddenly I'm alive
God gave me a
cosmic high five
As I step out the door
know what life's for
take my hand and
let's go for a ride
Chorus
=====================
sleepwalking by day
sleepwalking at night
until I found you
I was sleepwalking though life
sleepwalking by day
sleepwalking at night
I wanna be with you
for the rest of my life
for the rest of my life
oh the rest of my life
=====================
