As If I Hadn't Slept Lyrics - Singles - Idlewild

It's always 3 a.m. in your world 

So I'm drinking this as if I hadn't slept 

Telling stories which tell their stories themselves 

You didn't even hear them, I thought to somewhere else 

As long as I go somewhere, you'll still be trying to see 

As long as I go somewhere, you'll still be trying 

As long as I go somewhere, you'll still be lying to me 

As long as I go somewhere 

If you're so sure that you don't need love 

Only this is if I hadn't slept 

As laughter smiles back in your direction 

But you're protected by the smoke from your cigarette 

Then you tried to hold my hand under the table 

But it's far too vague to be meaningful 

As long as I go somewhere, you'll still be trying to see 

As long as I go somewhere, every night has a hold over me 

As long as I go somewhere, you'll still be lying to me 

As long as I go somewhere 

And you held me like I was a shadow 

But completely without any mystery 

And you compared me to a shadow 

Which in itself is some kind of victory
