Sleep Awake

Protecting you
Protecting me
I throw the evidence into a trunk and drop it in the sea

Lie awake
I sleep awake
I sleep with one eye on the bedroom door
The other on the cake

Protecting me (eee)
Protecting you (ooh)
Carving away our fingerprints out of our fingertips until they're smooth

Lie awake
I sleep awake
I sleep with one eye on my royal flush
The other on the take
I sleep awake

Protecting this
Protecting that
Calling a deadbeat with his dead boat
Wrapped around his artifact
Protecting that

Lie awake
I sleep awake
I sleep with one hand on my 45, the other 'round my baby's waist

Lie awake
I sleep awake
I go to bed with all my lights turned on
So I don't slip away
I stay awake

Out on the street, I keep a started car
Who only waits for me, conveniently

Lie awake
I sleep awake
Lie awake
I sleep awake
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
