Sleepwalker

I lived my life alone before you

And with those that I never succeeded to love

And I grew so accustomed to that kind of solitude

I fought you, I did not know how to give it up

Before you, had I ever known love

Or had I only known misuse

Of the power another had over me?

The power another had over me

I'll cross the country and I carry no key

Couldn't look up at the stars from anywhere?

And sometimes I did, I felt ancient

But still I sought peace and it never came to me

They often spoke as though I had been set free

But I traveled only in service of my dreams

I stood before them all, I was a sleepwalker

Couldn't hold my misery down, not even for you

Bore me on all the places I'd ever gone

And I grew so accustomed to that kind of solitude

But I long for you now even when you just leave the room

And of all the roads and the cities that I've passed through

Of all, all the eyes I searched inside

The one sense of permanence that I came to feel

Was mine only beneath your gaze
