Somewhere Between Waking and Sleeping (feat. Neil Hannon)
Without blindness, there is no sight You'd see further if you'd only close your eyes In unconsciousness I can find peace Inside prison walls I can find release
There is a place that I have seen Somewhere between waking and sleeping
Down at the water's edge Somebody waits for me Is it too late for me It's never too late, he says
[Left Channel] Without blindness, there is no sight You'd see further if you'd close your eyes Unblock the failure
[Right Channel] Without blindness, there is failure People gather by the river They were talking
There is a place that I have seen Somewhere between waking and sleeping
Leaning over the side Trailing my fingertips Feeling the water slip Into the quiet night
Viewed from the wrong end of a telescope I see myself, so far below Still and silent, rest in peace The thread unravels Merciful release
There is a place that I have seen Somewhere between waking and sleeping
Now I can almost see Figures upon the shore He's gathering in the oars Where are you taking me
