“We Sleep In Pairs” (mistitled on some streaming platforms as “We Sleep in Paris”) takes its title from a mishearing of “and sleeping pills” in the opening line of Radiohead’s “Motion Picture Soundtrack”. Its melody comes from part of “Wonderful Land” by The Shadows.
This isn’t the group’s first Ra...
[Verse 1]
Each night I lay beneath the Earth
I am tired of feeling powerless
With no edge and no reflected light
There is something in the way of us
[Verse 2]
Don't cry now, all the wheels will turn
There'll be bluebirds over you and I
With black brains, they'll come to save our lives
As our flesh becomes electrified
[Pre-Chorus]
We sleep in pairs, just waiting
[Chorus]
Can you take me away? Can you stop with the lies?
Are you desperate? Yes, I think I'm desperate
What's my best bet? On your deathbed?
Yes, I'm on my last legs, then you're desperate
[Verse 3]
Blaze on me, bird of paradise
Don't be fearful, don't you close your eyes
Oh, sister, keep the hope alive
We can run before they realise
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm asking you to heal me
[Chorus]
Can you take me away? Can you stop with the lies?
Are you desperate? Yes, I think I'm desperate
What's my best bet? On your deathbed?
Yes, I'm on my last legs, then you're desperate
Can you take me away? Can you stop with the lies?
