about

Originally composed in 1998/1999. Am I even ever awake?

lyrics

You see it on the streets
Full of broken dreams
Resigned to their 9-5s
Cannot count the times
They let their dreams go by
Just for a lack of trying

And I can't bear to believe
That I'm a wolf among these sheep
Or that there's honour among thieves
While we walk around asleep
Walk around asleep
Walk around

It's not me who's talking
I'm not doing the walking
Aimlessly the drugs carry me around
My makeup makes me vain
My prose keeps me from fame

And I can't bear to believe
That I'm a wolf among these sheep
Or that there's honour among thieves
While we walk around asleep
Walk around asleep
Walk around

Feel it on the streets
The cracked and shattered dreams
They all hate their shitty 9-5s
And I hope that they're all creeps
So I can cry myself to sleep
Cuz at least it lets me know
That I'm still alive

And I can't bear to believe
That I'm a wolf among these sheep
Or that there's honour among thieves
While we walk around asleep
Walk around asleep
Walk around asleep

And I can't bear to believe
That I'm a wolf among these sheep
Or that there's honour among thieves
While we walk around asleep
Walk around asleep
Walk around
