FLYLEAF – Sleep Walker lyrics

My spirit is willing
But my flesh is weak
My eyelids grow heavy
And I might just fall asleep

Walking around in my sleep
Running into walls I cannot see
Falling and scraping up my face
Ignoring the softest spoken grace
How many times will I go and take the bait
Only for this hook to rip right through my face

How can I love you back
What can I do to show you
His piercing eyes meet mine
Please simply stay awake
Talk to me and I'll hear you
Don't fall asleep this time
Gotta stay awake
Gotta stay awake

Don't you see me reaching for you
I swear I really do love you

How can I love you back
What can I do to show you
His piercing eyes meet mine
Please simply stay awake
Talk to me and I'll hear you
Don't fall asleep this time
Gotta stay awake
Gotta stay awake
