Took a walk alone last night
Slept inside your head
It was raining hard again,
crawled back into bed
Tried to catch up to you
But you moved too fast
Thought about a million things
Fell asleep at last
Got up again last night
Tore all over town
Skidding tires screeching brakes
Barely make a sound
We were on a winding road
Going 65
Slid along an icy stretch, made it back alive
Little eyes are open but they don`t see very far
You can only hurt the ones you love
Not the ones you`re thinking of
Little eyes are open but they`re sinking back again
Don`t you know you`re sleeping much too long
Wake up little eyes
Moving but not gaining any ground
Climbing up the escalator as it takes you down
Last night I heard this sound
Echoed everywhere
Like a buzzing amplifier
Burning through the air
It`s still raining hard, you said
Have you any clue?
Is it ever gonna stop?
I guess that`s up to you
Little eyes are open but they don`t see very far
You can only hurt the ones you love
Not the ones you`re thinking of
Little eyes are open but they`re sinking back again
Don`t you know you`re sleeping much too long
Wake up little eyes
