Sleeping in Traffic

[04:45.76] Waking up in panic
[04:46.27] A room not hot or cold
[04:47.29] Afraid to fall asleep again
[04:53.48] My other side will unfold
[05:01.02] I am on the edge of sanity
[05:10.82] Far out in a hazy, troubled dream
[05:25.08] I've scored the morning
[05:32.88] A crimson red thought
[05:39.30] Someone is struggling
[05:44.70] With the battles I've fought
[05:55.16] Sleeping in the traffic
[06:04.33] Red lights turn to green
[06:07.96] Blinding painted white lines
[06:16.22] Moving in between
[06:21.45] I am on the edge of sanity
[06:32.35] Far out in a hazy, troubled dream
[06:46.78] Time and time over
[06:55.87] It's always the same
[06:56.16] Reckon you know me?
[07:04.17] Are you playing my game?
[07:26.06] Me is my own worst enemy
[08:12.32] In a room of frantic fools
[08:39.52] Waiting for a juicy blues
[08:42.75] I present my guitar song
[08:47.24] Scratching strings with tones too long
[08:51.48] They see of with tired eyes
[08:56.05] Hidden coughs, 'he's full of lies!'
[09:00.99] Cigarette smoke and black tar stains
[09:05.42] Darkness feasts on my remains
[09:10.18] Please save me
[09:51.83] Out of darkness into light
[09:55.28] Still there's no salvation in sight
[09:59.75] Seven wishes, what's the first?
[10:06.93] Seven wishes, quench your blood-thirst
[10:07.77] Killing has no consequence
[10:13.37] In a world that makes no sense
[10:17.75] Blow the brain that brought this up
[10:22.36] Blow the brain that thought this up
[10:29.86] Please save me
[11:08.85] Lady in the doorway
[13:15.26] With a face that's so kind
[13:20.02] Caressing smells
[13:22.29] Twisting my mind
[13:25.83] Magical evening, and
[13:28.55] She's got the glow
[13:32.04] And though she's got it all
[13:35.18] She's giving it away...
[14:05.13] Her eyes begin to glow
[14:33.32] In the semi dark room
[14:39.44] I move close and close my eyes
[14:40.40] And welcome her lips to mine
[14:44.58] She takes of her clothes
[14:47.07] Let's them slide down her hips
[14:50.32] Her body is glowing
[14:53.13] And she's giving it away
[15:24.32] In the bed I lie awake
[15:29.11] There's one road for me to take
[15:31.79] I must leave while there's still time
[15:36.61] To find out this truth of mine
[17:19.53] Sleep... I'm only sleeping
[18:49.17] Notice that my eyes are open
[18:54.36] Run... What am i running from?
[19:00.02] The demons they can't catch me while I'm travelling
[19:06.62] Dark... Dark, dark darkness
[19:11.98] Fill me up and set me free
[19:16.39] Sea... I smell ocean air
[19:23.00] Sleeping in the presence of seagulls
[20:01.83] In the misty morning fog the dock lies clear
[20:28.56] Salty smell of coral reeves appears this time of year
[20:33.46] From the depths of mother earth he comes again
[20:37.09] It's captain Flurry and his henchmen
[20:42.52] In spite of his old crooked back and generous age
[20:45.39] The beard, the pipe, his rusty sword, he's a cleptomanic sage man
[20:47.78] He knows the difference to what we call right or wrong
[20:54.06] And the hench-men sing in their old song
[20:59.73] 'Har har, we have sailed far
[21:01.63] From Norway to Peru
[21:03.15] Whatever captain Flurry says
[21:05.17] You must believe it is true'
[21:11.58]
[21:17.55] He says that 'well you know, snow covers the igloos'
[21:44.59] He tells me 'it's hot and dry in the Sahara desert'
[21:49.78] The kings and queens has got it in for us
[21:53.73] And I just missed the bus
[22:02.01]
[22:06.26] I'm running away now, away from pirates and seagulls and the dock of the bay
[22:11.00] Reaching sweet perfumed city streets
[22:13.77] Scented by gasoline and neon lights in sweet cooperation
[22:17.48] A guy wells: 'Hey!' but I can't stop, 'cause the rhythm has got me by the balls
[22:22.91] So to say. I'm sneaking into the backstreets and some sleazy 70's disco club...
[22:26.77] The ceiling is a sky of bright, shining disco lights
[22:49.80] There's bee gees on the gramophone, they're singing 'ha ha ha ha
[23:32.85] Staying alive', oh please, make me, take me through the night
[23:48.84] But the laughter from her is an ocean of sleep to my restless soul
[23:56.95] Tension leaves by her embrace and her breasts are warm, not cold
[24:06.27] They're not cold at all
[24:46.87] In reflection of some slim shade goggles
[24:51.34] I decide to ease my stoned head
[24:52.47] A punk stands in my freeway line
[24:53.87] Taking up my precious time
[24:54.68] His hair is dyed in the colour blue
[24:56.53] Purple, green & yellow too
[24:58.83] 'Hello Dolly' on his lips
[25:00.98] And Dixieland groove in his lips
[25:02.86] He won't crack a smile for me
[25:22.22] Won't be calm, he can't be, see
[25:25.77] My arm is on the shoulder of
[25:26.72] The woman his dream's dependant on
[25:28.36] I have touched her deep inside
[25:30.40] 'Have I?' says I, I'm just passing by!
[25:32.87] Say's he'll send me straight to hell
[25:34.93] To teach me my lesson well
[25:36.86] His lady's staring at me
[25:42.06] She's glace eyed lover - concrete stone faced
[25:45.31] Super sonic ultra bitch
[25:49.89] She's tasting cocktails - 'which is which, hi hi hi?'
[25:55.23] THE BITCH BREATHES FIRE
[25:56.72] AND FIRE TAKES ME HIGHER THAN YOU (DO)
[26:12.88]
[26:24.77] Sleep... I'm only sleeping
[26:30.92] Dream... I'm only dreaming
[26:34.63] Drink... I'm only driving
[26:42.44] The punk is raising living hell
[27:09.13] I decide to grow my shell
[27:12.09] Run from here while i still can
[27:14.29] 'Cause he has a gun in his hand oh no!
[27:17.79] Shooting bullets where they hit
[27:18.16] Or wherever they may fit
[27:20.46] My stomach begins to ache a bit
[27:21.83] And I collapse while thinking: 'shit'
[27:24.64] THE GUN BREATHES FIRE
[27:28.34] AND FIRE TAKES ME HIGHER THAN YOU (DO)
[27:31.89]
[29:10.52] Falling through the fire
[30:30.57] No constant speed left
[30:38.68] Falling faster and faster
[30:44.20] Do I really exist?
[30:49.54] Am I on the verge of sanity?
[31:01.00] In this hell of false humanity
[31:16.07] The sheets are filled with angst
[31:34.06] I once thought I'd escaped
[31:43.77] But time after time, the pattern is the same
[31:54.27] I get trapped in myself
[32:00.83] And there's no way out of here
[32:05.40] My mind is the maze that only I can face
[32:09.73] That only I can face
[32:27.00] That only I can face
[32:33.82] Me is my own worst enemy
[33:02.33]
