Kevin Devine Sleepwalking Through My Life Lyrics
Sleepwalking Through My Life by Kevin Devine
Some days stand up
Fixed at attention
Some days race by too fast to mention
Those days I wonder if I'll ever get it right
Sleepwalking through my life
Sometimes I'm sure
Most times less certain
If anything's behind the curtain
Sometimes I wonder
If it matters what it's called
God or nothing else at all
Sometimes I'm clean
Sing like a sparrow
Some days I'm nasty and I'm narrow
And I get spiteful, I get ugly, I get mean
Can't get back on the beam
Mmm-hmm
Mmm-hmm
Some days the world's prim as a show dog
Sometimes it's filthy as a boss hog
And those days the phone feels like a 3,000 pound weight
Can't lift it to my face
Some days it's clear
So I can see it:
What to be and how to be it
But some days I wonder
And some days I doubt it
Today I'm hopeful I can knock it off tonight
This sleepwalking through my life
Fixed at attention
Some days race by too fast to mention
Those days I wonder if I'll ever get it right
Sleepwalking through my life
Sometimes I'm sure
Most times less certain
If anything's behind the curtain
Sometimes I wonder
If it matters what it's called
God or nothing else at all
Sometimes I'm clean
Sing like a sparrow
Some days I'm nasty and I'm narrow
And I get spiteful, I get ugly, I get mean
Can't get back on the beam
Mmm-hmm
Mmm-hmm
Some days the world's prim as a show dog
Sometimes it's filthy as a boss hog
And those days the phone feels like a 3,000 pound weight
Can't lift it to my face
Some days it's clear
So I can see it:
What to be and how to be it
But some days I wonder
And some days I doubt it
Today I'm hopeful I can knock it off tonight
This sleepwalking through my life
