The Softest Hard

Poke it with a stick
Is it hard or is it soft
We boiled it for an hour
And we kept it in our loft

The feeling is a stranger
Is it time to open up
There's no such thing in our place
As enough is enough

You call the stuff I keep inside
For something close to hate
I tell you that it's not
That it's just something that I ate

I keep this shit still going
Cause' I keep seeing your face
While I should lock myself inside
For things to be kept sane

When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place
When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place
When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place
When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place

The rock that has rolled down the hill
Has taken space inside
I try to act as if it's gone
But the fact is hard to hide

You try to get inside of me
Like you do all the time
But as the rock is growing
Things will never be just fine

You touch it on its surface
It's reacting to your hand
A kind of symbiosis I will never understand
You got that magnetism in you
Is it in your glands
Or something that you brought back with you
From the foreign land

When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place
When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place
When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place
When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place

People keep on fading into others in my nights
Who was hero turned into a guy I had to fight
He was going to come over for Turkish delights
But now you say it's daytime and that everything's alright

Dreamt I booked a lot of flights to go to every lake
That I had the emails but it had been some mistake
Now I've got a headache because I woke up all too late

When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place
When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place
When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place
When I'm sleeping in
The Softest Hard is taking place
