Sleepwalker, sleepwalker don’t heed the call
Hold the wool over your eyes, a slip chain on heretic thoughts
Anchored in the bay, she gave you shelter from the storm
Slipped your mooring and set a new course

Dawn’s fingers crept from your hair to the ground,
and danced upon your eyelids
The morning bore down
The earth became cold, the soft light untangled
the knots of the night and the notes of the angels

Sleepwalker, sleepwalker you dared say the words
A stitch in time..
You wrote your own curse
And you threw it out wildly in the hope it would return,
but it lodged inside her breast and grew seven spurs

The city heard your cries and it swallowed them whole
The streets rang the next day, a warning for all
On the third day it was silent
The silence of the wind down the tracks past the platform,
blankets on the ground

How do I tie the threads into a circle
How do I bind the end the bind the...

As you woke the cost grew, an eclipse of the mind
The bridge had grown thin cause we’d walked it all night
And the night had spanned ages but it still came up short
Brief kiss of the tangent and spinning apart

Sleepwalker, sleepwalker I had little hope
Every hour I could steal by the throne was well bought
To flash before my eyes, leave traces on my skin
Feed the conflagration, seeds for the spring
