    Moving In My Sleep

    In the mornings, early 
    I fall back to sleep
    And every morning, early
    I have a recurring dream
    I’m packing every thing I own
    Running out of time
    I’m out of time…

     

    Moving in my sleep again
    Lost the landlord’s keys again
    No security again
    Cleaning on my knees again
    Moving in my sleep —— Again.


    When I’m dreaming, worried
    Time is ticking for me to flee
    And then I’m dreaming, worried
    What to take, what to leave
    There’s no new place where I belong
    Where can I go?
    Where do I go….?

     

    Moving in my sleep again
    Lost the landlord’s keys again
    No security again
    Cleaning on my knees again

    Moving in my sleep again
    Boxed up memories again
    No one hears my pleas again
    High anxiety again

    Moving in my sleep
    Moving in my sleep — Again, again.

     

    Hiding in corners trying to stay
    Desperate for one more day

     

    Time, more time. I just need some more
    Time, more time. I just need some more
    (repeats until end)

     

    Moving in my sleep again
    Lost the landlord’s keys again
    No security again
    Cleaning on my knees again

    Moving in my sleep again
    Boxed up memories again
    No one hears my pleas again
    High anxiety again

    Moving in my sleep again
    Leaving things behind again
    Running out of time again
    Running out of time…

    Moving in my sleep 
    Moving in my sleep 
    Moving in my sleep —Again, again, again.

    I just need some more time.
