- Sleepwalk Lyrics / with translationsSleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Rolling and falling, I'm choking and calling
Name after name after name
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Naked and bleeding, the streetlights stray by me
Hurting my eyes with their glare
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Helplessly breaking, exchanging my faces
Destined, we had to collide
Sleepwalk
Caught on the outside, I'm crumpling and crawling
Watching the day drag away
Spiraling deeper, I can't feel my fingers
Rip round my throat as I dream
Dream
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Rolling and falling, I'm choking and calling
Name after name after name
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Naked and bleeding, the streetlights stray by me
Hurting my eyes with their glare
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Helplessly breaking, exchanging my faces
Destined, we had to collide
Caught on the outside, I'm crumpling and crawling
Watching the day drag away
Spiraling deeper, I can't feel my fingers
Rip round my throat as I dream
Dream
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
Sleepwalk, sleepwalk, sleepwalk
