Sleepless Commotion Lyrics - Singles - Murmurs

When you show up like that, 

what am I supposed to say... 

Takes a while for the bruises to heal. 

Oh you've got to escape, 

before it's too late. 

Children of the garden - 

tangled in danger - 

playing the smile, 

and suffering... suffering alone 

Daring a battle with the bastard... 

who's killing us slowly... 

Sleepless commotion 

Sleepless commotion 

and slash the water bed 

and slashed all her clothes 

smashed all the crystal 

and broke the window 

Sleepless commotion 

Sleepless comomotion 

Police won't arrive, 

and I've hidden the scotch. 

Oh that's made matters worse. 

Now he's laughing at us. 

Children of the garden - 

tangled in danger - 

playing the smile 

and suffering... suffering alone 

I'm praying for daybreak 

I'm praying for peace 

I'm praying for freedom 

I'm praying she'll leave him... 

And all i can do is 

protect while i'm here now. 

I won't go too far 

I have nothing to fear. 

Except when i am not here... 

Now it's over, 

the night won't return. 

a phone call in search of her soul 

I left her alone. 

Why'd i leave her alone?... 

Sleepless commotion, 

Sleepless commotion... 

Children of the garden - 

tangled in danger - 

playing the smile, 

suffering 

and suffering alone.
