Sleeper

“Brother, I am old”, he says, old
Lying on the floor with no confidence
Fighting for the right to be told
That everything is well when you’re all alone

Way back way back
The time that they said goodbye
Lonely lonely
Always the same routine
Hide them hide them
21 years this bad
Burn them burn them
Would you forget all that

Sleeper he awakes when he knows
When something that is said, it is said for real
A heart it never fights when it’s told
No matter what was done you are always loved
