Cat
and Mouse
Sleepwalking
As you crossed
the room, I was all wrapped up in my cocoon
When you said hello, I had nowhere to run and I had nowhere to go
With a fool like you, I will say anything you want me to
With a fool like me, Im amazed at how you take it all so
seriously.
People come and
people go, and people want to tell you just how much they know
But Im runnin out of alibis, I got one thing left
that I cant deny
Yes Im doin time, doin time, and it wont
be long til I cross that line
Yes the day will come when its time to go, you better get
ready, cause now you know.
In a place like
this, you abandon all hope, you just exist
You cant break the spell, well you know youre not in
heaven, but you might be in hell.
People come and
people go, and people want to tell you just how much they know
But Im runnin out of alibis, I got one thing left
that I cant deny
Yes Im doin time, doin time, and it wont
be long til I cross that line
Yes the day will come when its time to go, you better get
ready, cause now you know.
As you crossed
the room, I was all wrapped up in my cocoon
When you said hello, I had nowhere to run and I had nowhere to
go.

Yes Im runnin, runnin, runnin,

Yes Im runnin, runnin, runnin,
runnin
