How Do You Sleep

I've seen your severed head at a banquet for the dead

All dressed up for dinner, looked so fine

Your shining silver salver so tastefully powdered

With the finest military quick lime

Now try and picture this, as I gave you a kiss

The apple in your mouth slipped in mine

The orchestra played the sweetest serenade

We laughed as we put away your wine

So raise your glasses, here's a toast to wasted lives

May all their ghost come back to haunt you

And tell you how they died

How do you sleep

How do you last the night and keep the dogs at bay

How do you feel

When you close your eyes and try and drift away

Does it feel any better now, does it mean any more

When the angel of death comes knock, knocking

And banging at your door

When all the fun was over, I put you on my shoulder

Took you home, away from it all

Shot down and claimed, mounted and framed

Tastefully hung up on my wall

Are my dreams your nightmares

Get off your knees, the party's over

I'm coming home to you

How do you sleep

How do you last the night and keep the dogs at bay

How do you feel

When you close your eyes and try and drift away

Does it feel any better now, does it mean any more

When the angel of death comes knock, knocking

And banging at your door

How do you sleep

How do you last the night and keep the dogs at bay

How do you feel

When you close your eyes and try and drift away

Does it feel any better now, does it mean any more

When the angel of death comes knock, knocking

And banging at your door

At your door
