we sink

Of Monsters And Men

All those eyes on me
As I sink into the open sea
Colour in my sheltered mind
Fill the gap between you and I

We are the sleepers
We bite our tongues
We set the fire and we let it burn
Through the dreamers we hear the hum
They say "come on, come on let's go"
So come on, come on let's go

It's warm, the skin I'm living in
It creates and shapes what is within
So please look away, don't look at me
As we sink into the open sea

We are the sleepers
We bite our tongues
We set the fire and we let it burn
Through the dreamers we hear the hum
They say, "come on, come on let's go"

We are the sleepers
We bite our tongues
We set the fire and we let it burn
Through the dreamers we hear the hum
They say, "come on, come on let's go"
So come on, come on let's go

I know that it's a waste of time
Chasing in the dark
But keep me in your clouded mind
Until time ignites a spark
