Sleep Awake Lyrics - O My Heart - Mother Mother

Protecting you 

Protecting me 

I throw the evidence into a trunk and drop it in the sea 

Lie awake 

I sleep awake 

I sleep with one eye on the bedroom door, 

The other on the cake 

Protecting me 

Protecting you 

Carving away our fingerprints out of our fingertips until they're smooth 

Lie awake 

I sleep awake 

I sleep with one eye on my royal flush 

The other on the take 

I sleep awake

Protecting this 

Protecting that 

Calling a deadbeat with his dead boat 

Wrapped around his artifact 

Protecting that 

Lie awake 

I sleep awake 

I sleep with one hand on my 45, the other 'round my baby's waist 

Lie awake 

I sleep awake 

I go to bed with all my lights turned on 

So I don't slip away 

I stay awake 

Out on the street I keep a started car 

Who only waits for me, conveniently

Lie awake 

I sleep awake 

Lie awake 

I sleep awake 

Ahhh... ahhh...
