1987 Lyrics

Sleep For Sleepers 1987

[Verse 1]
Wandering like a steady heart that's newly beating
You close your eyes in a wade
She takes her breath that turns psycho-like
With her potential life ahead
You join in, walk away
Selfish in every way

[Chorus]
Everytime you lie, I'll haunt you every night
How can you live with yourself?
I hoped to God that you will change

[Verse 2]
Tell me about your children and newborn babygirl
What about the life that you promised?
To give me every world?
Take it back to '87, you know damn well I would
Take the bottle from your hands
And bury it deeper, off for good
Your blood is bending and your world is spinning
But is it right for them to watch you leave me?

[Chorus]
Everytime you lie, I'll haunt you every night
How can you live with yourself?
I hoped to God that you will change

[Breakdown]
Swallow it down and then just bruise (and then just bruise)
A stand-up, hollow in you (hollow in you)
This is the filth that you've become (that you've become)
Suffocating in your own blood

[Chorus]
Everytime you lie, I'll haunt you every night
How can you live with yourself?
I hoped you've change
