Simon’s Sleeping

By Pretty Balanced

On Icicle Bicycle

[Verse]

She has eyes closed

She has fevered

As her hands flick

Cross her stomach

She is dreaming

She is breathless

As her sweat beads

On her forehead


[Chorus]

Simon's sleeping on the floor

What's she dreaming

Simon's sleeping on the floor

What's she dreaming

Simon watches eyelids as projections flicker there

I don't wanna wake her but her whispers sort of scare

Me


[Verse]

There's a green hill

There's a beech tree

There's a window

That can see me

There's a raincloud

There's an ocean

I am running

Without motion


[Chorus]

Simon's sleeping on the floor

What's she dreaming

Simon's sleeping on the floor

What's she dreaming

Simon watches eyelids as projections flicker there

I don't wanna wake her but her whispers sort of scare

Me


[Bridge]

Simon's clawing fingers out

Doesn't know it's still without

Face is latticed with her hair

Reaches out but nothing's there

Shaking wake her up I try

I can only watch her lie


[Chorus]

Simon watches eyelids as projections flicker there

I don't wanna wake her but her whispers sort of scare

Me
