[Verse 1]
Now I know I've been sinking deep
And so I hear willows weep
Someone put us to sleep
Been two years' time
I find you on my mind
I never let my shadows go
So climb out through the holes
Faces turn into stone
You've grown
And I've realized that now the time has shown
[Chorus]
Walk in silence
It haunts, you won't sleep
And I'm following your footsteps, climbing steep
Freeze all movements
Don't give away a thing
And I think I must be dreaming, counting sheep
[Verse 2]
Diamonds fall from the trees
I feel tragedy
Like it's breathing down my cheek
For long the heaped time flies by
I'm counting sheep
Reasons why maybe I'm in too deep
Words bite through
'til they sting, thick skin
And the noises in your ears begin to ring
[Chorus]
Walk in silence
It haunts, you won't sleep
And I'm following your footsteps, climbing steep
Freeze all movements
Don't give away a thing
And I think I must be dreaming, counting sheep
[Verse 3]
And suddenly you stop and sway
I don't notice anyway
Who took the wind out of your sails
Whilst I've been sleeping?
And they all try to be your friend
Does it drive you round the bend?
I promise you I'm real
But I'm not the only one in your head
So open up, go to bed
They'll wake you up
I can see see why you've gone to count sheep
Said I feel find
Giving an answer
Good [?] to be kind
Your heart beats faster
And I can see why you've gone to count sheep
