I'm sorry, were you sleeping?
I needed to hold you now
Blue light flickers through the Econolodge night
Story upon story builds fog in my sight
Each face that I see has one eyebrow cocked
Hand below counter, the safe box is locked
The smirk says "You don't know I shouldn't be here
Go back to sleep now, have no fear..."

I hear how your heart is beaten
We could do with some victory now
Snowed in on both sides and the box is no help
Can't seem to see far enough from myself
Can I be sure a cry of the heart has some worth
Not just filling in time before crashing to earth
There's doubt in the night as you lie sweetly breathing
In the haze of my life am I just walking 'round sleeping?
Sleeping, walking 'round...
