Kris Delmhorst - Sleeping Dogs Lyrics
I'm so tired of not moving, my skin is stiff and soreAnd I'm so tired of not looking at that thing that we ignoreAnd I'm so nervous that you'll see me seeing if you turn your face anymoreAnd I'm so careful to keep your secrets, what do I do this forWake up, it's getting late and the sun is on the riseAnd it's time to open up those blinds and let it shineOn those sleeping dogs you let lieI always wondered where you got the notion that your silence does not hurtCause I can see the truth when you lean over, it's in the pocket of your shirtAnd unspoken might feel like mercy but all it means is there's things you'venever saidIt only means I have no way of knowing if it's all in my headWake up, it's getting late and the sun is in the skyAnd it's time to open up those blinds and let it shineOn those sleeping dogs you let lieAnd you know whyAnd for a long time I don't think you ever really knew about the state I wasinAnd I guess that would be my fault, cause all I ever showed you was skinBut now you got that x-ray close-up, you got that microscope to my gutAnd that is not a one-way offer so I'll tell you whatWake up, it's getting late and the sun is high in the skyAnd I'm here to open up those blinds and let it shineYou may be sleeping soundly but I will not let you lie
