MIDNIGHT OIL - Sleep lyrics

rate me

So you've got the blues

The evening wore out your shoes

To a shuffling beat

It's a colourful crowd

Spraycan information

Cover the lonely station

Checkpoint for the state of the nation

On the missionbeat beat

The radio drug

Wayward destinations

Secondhand sensation

In the back of the cell

The plug and the cord

Shoulder dislocation

Bruised in isolation

In the eye of the storm

Writing on walls

Cross my heart confusion

Looking for a new solution

It's the heat of the land

Swallowing sweat

Say those dreams can shake me

Dawn come down and save me

Take this heart

Break this heart

Wrap it up and let me sleep

(Moginie/Hirst/Garrett)
