I lie awake at night
Sleep only comes under cover of a cloudy sunlit sky
It takes so long
And when that dream arrives
I'm transported to the centre of a grassy roundabout it's like
I've been there so long
I need to get that rest so I can be at my best
And all my worries they wash away
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit
Yes we can get inside that corner of our minds
Where all the worries they hide away
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit day
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit day
The sky no longer appears so grey
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit day
I lie awake at night
That sleeping feeling creeping up inside my mind it's like
I've been awake so long
I'm rolling out the sky
I'm feeling lucid choosing actions as they pop into my mind
Fuck fight and fly
I need to get that rest so I can be at my best
And all my worries they wash away
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit
Yes we can get inside the corner of our minds
Where all the worries they hide away
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit day
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit day
The sky no longer appears so grey
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit day Hey oh
I walk the streets at night
I see these faces visit places that I'll likely never find
Again in my life
My feet to me they cry
The ground they've covered sends a shutter from the Earth up to my spine
Get re-aligned
I need to get that rest so I can be at my best
And all my worries they wash away
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit
Yes we can get inside the corner of our minds
Where all the worries they hide away
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit day
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit day
The sky no longer appears so grey
Under the cover of a cloudy sunlit day
