Penelope: IV. The Lotus Eaters
Down the ward the men are dreaming
Drooling in their cots
Pricks of blood in every elbow
I am no better
It's jus that I'm awake
It's jus that I'm awake
It's jus that I'm awake and walking
Walking
Hear my footsteps down the hall
Now I'm smelling the night air
Crunching gravel as I walk, walk, walk
Never, never, never, never will I
Never will I sleep like that again
Never, never, never, never, never
Never will I sleep like that, sleep like that...
Sleep like that
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
My sleeping, drooling, smiling men
I'm not as lost
I'm not as lost
I'm not as lost as them
Never, never, never, never will I
Never will I sleep like that again
Never, never, never, never, never
Never will I sleep like that, sleep like that...
Sleep like that
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
My sleeping, drooling, sleeping, drooling
Sleeping, drooling men
I'm not as lost
I'm not as lost
I'm not as lost as them
Drooling in their cots
Pricks of blood in every elbow
I am no better
It's jus that I'm awake
It's jus that I'm awake
It's jus that I'm awake and walking
Walking
Hear my footsteps down the hall
Now I'm smelling the night air
Crunching gravel as I walk, walk, walk
Never, never, never, never will I
Never will I sleep like that again
Never, never, never, never, never
Never will I sleep like that, sleep like that...
Sleep like that
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
My sleeping, drooling, smiling men
I'm not as lost
I'm not as lost
I'm not as lost as them
Never, never, never, never will I
Never will I sleep like that again
Never, never, never, never, never
Never will I sleep like that, sleep like that...
Sleep like that
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
And I'm lost in this night
I'm lost in this night
I'm already lost, but not as lost as them
My sleeping, drooling, sleeping, drooling
Sleeping, drooling men
I'm not as lost
I'm not as lost
I'm not as lost as them
