Counting Sheep Lyrics by Max Pope

Counting Sheep

2022

[Verse 1]
Now I know I've been sinkin' deep
And so I hear willows weep
Someone put us to sleep
Been two years' time
I find you on my mind
I never let my shadows go
So climb out through the holes
Faces turn into stone
You've grown
And I've realised that now the time has shown

[Chorus]
Walk in silence, it haunts you, won't sleep
I'm followin' your footsteps, climbin' steep
Freeze all movements, don't give away a thing
I think I must be dreamin', countin' sheep

[Verse 2]
Diamonds fall from the trees, I feel tragedy
And it's breathin' down my cheek
For long the heaped time flies by, I'm countin' sheep
Reasons why maybe I'm in too deep
The words bite through 'til they sting thick skin
And the noises in your ears begin to ring

[Chorus]
Walk in silence, it haunts you, won't sleep
I'm followin' your footsteps, climbin' steep
Freeze all movements, don't give away a thing
I think I must be dreamin', countin' sheep
Walk in silence, it haunts you, won't sleep
I'm followin' your footsteps, climbin' steep
Freeze all movements, don't give away a thing
I think I must be dreamin', countin' sheep

[Outro]
Da-da-dum, da-da-dum
Da-da-da-da-da-dum
Da-da-dum, da-da-dum
Da-da-da-da-da-dum
