Lyrics The Handsome Family

The Handsome Family

Sleepy

I woke up from a sound sleep

They were all around me

Their black eyes shone, small polished stones

I found I couldn't move, they took me through the roofs

But I was sleepy

And it was easy

To fall back to sleep

But I was sleepy

And it was easy

To fall back to sleep

Blood and glass on my bare feet

I went wild through pine trees

A black car slowed, noises on the phone

The stars came falling down, all the lights went out

But I was sleepy

And it was easy

To fall back to sleep
