Sleepless Lyrics - Adrian Belew

In the dream I fall into the sleepless sea 

With a swell of panic and pain 

My veins are aching for the distant reef 

In the crush of emotional waves 

Alright, get a hold of yourself 

An' don't fight it, it's over your head 

It's alright, the rumble in your ears 

It's alright to feel a little fear 

An' don't fight it, it's over your head 

It's alright, you wake up in your bed 

Silhouettes like shivering ancient feelings 

They cover my foreign floors and walls 

Submarines are lurking in my foggy ceiling 

They keep me sleepless at night 

Hey, can you picture the sight 

Of figures on the beach in the searing night 

And the roaring hurt of my silent fight 

Can you pull me out of this sleepless night?
