Dreamed I Saw Soldiers Lyrics by Neil Halstead

Sleeping on Roads

0

[Verse 1]
I climbed out the window
And stared at the stars
But the moment I wanted
Had already passed
[Chorus]
Lost in the silence
Blessed by the night
Dreamed I saw soldiers
They were all dressed in white
All dressed in white
[Verse 2]
Well, the summer came late
So I slept here for days
Till winter was over
And my heart could be saved
[Chorus]
I walked for a lifetime
And I climbed in a hole
She had breasts on the outside
She had breath in her soul
Death in her soul
[Verse 3]
Placed in a bottle
And flung out to sea
I was stung by the thought
That the ship was now me
[Chorus]
Lost in the silence
Blessed by the night
Dreamed I saw soldiers
They were all dressed in white
All dressed in white
[Bridge]
Fellow by nature, I fell for a way
That would shake me all over
And spin me around
Twisted my feelings
Till I nearly drowned
It was love at first sight
The first time around
Time around
We stared at the walls
Till we lost all the dawn
Waiting for words, I said
"I've been cursed by your love."
Crying for shame
So what has become
Of our love?
Of our love?
[Verse 4]
Now all the neighbors
Have stolen my stash
I write poems about death
I ain't finished one yet
[Chorus]
Lost in the silence
Blessed by the night
I dreamed I saw soldiers
They were all dressed in white
All dressed in white
