When You Sleep Lyrics - Prolonging The Magic - Cake

When you sleep 

Where do your fingers go? 

What do your fingers know? 

What do your fingers show? 

Where do your fingers go? 

Yea 

When you sleep do they tremble, on the edge, of the bed? 

Or do you fold them neatly by your head? 

Do they clench like claws against your own skin? 

When you're living your day all over again 

When you sleep 

Where do your fingers go? 

What do your fingers know? 

What do your fingers show? 

Where do your fingers go? 

Yea 

Do they play guitar in a latin bar? 

Are they strangers or lovers? Do they drive your car? 

Are they swimming submissively, sex acts of life 

Or just cutting through jello with a very sharp knife? 

Now Zeus was a womanizer 

Always on the make 

But Hera usually punished her that 

Zeus, was one to take 

When you sleep 

Where do your fingers go? 

Are they pulling out weeds, from the dusty soil? 

But then never rewarded, with the fruits of their toil 

Are they scratching their nails, on the chalkboards of death? 

Only seeking attention, when everyone in the room has left 

Where do your fingers go? 

What do your fingers know? 

What do your fingers show? 

Where do your fingers go? 

Yea 

When you sleep 

Do they tremble on the edge of the bed? 

Or do you fold them neatly by your head?
