Slumber Shadow (Transmission To Past Self For The Avoidance Of) Lyrics by Met City

Stockholm Fancy

2015

(Eyes wide closed am I feeling a ghost
Either you’re stepping close or they’re changing the dose)
(I’ve got the one quick shift with a crime on the lips, I’ve got the memories left to make)
(Motion still going in for the kill, it’s either love sick bombs or a change of the will)
(We’ve got the white sand sink taking off in a blink, we’ve got the memories left to make)
Memories old with the ends foretold, I am lost, am lost in stories
Faded bold ink that kissed the cold I’ve been damned, been damned by stories
A song to hum as I do fall asleep
To wake me up, to wake inside a dream
The slumber shadow on the wall does creep
How long, how long, too long I’ve been asleep
The light sorted it out in order
The luck is now unto the sea
The day of sullen eyes is over
It wasn't, it wasn't me
A penny for the thoughts I'm over
The past and present don't agree
A cello for a lost October
It's over
This future dream
Gold I know’s in the depths of souls, still I cry, I cry for stories
Moment’s bliss out of listlessness
Angry words, I’m disturbed by stories
A song to hum as I do fall asleep
To wake me up, to wake inside a dream
The slumber shadow on the wall does creep
How long, how long, too long I’ve been asleep
If you are hearing this the past is gone I’m only seventeen
This message will resolve the crisis
It’s over, you’re in a dream
And right around the time you’re twenty
If you can find the coming scene
Then you have won and fought for order
It’s over, this future dream
