Half Asleep (Alternate Version) Lyrics by School of Seven Bells

Alpinisms (Alternate Versions)

2009

[Verse 1]
Sometimes I go whole days
Listening bored, half asleep
I won't say anything
That's worth a thing to me
One day, suddenly, time
Took a turn that once felt so brief
I blinked to see polite ghosts fading quickly
[Verse 2]
What begins as an unguarded
Train of thought slowly can become
An addiction to the slumber
Of disconnection and the resonance
Of memory that no longer has a shape
But keeps you numb through
The hours till gone is another day
[Verse 3]
Be aware, my darling
These things I say I mean
Are just traces of something
I long to feel again
I see our time expand
In the air almost forcibly
Spreading thinner till it dissolves completely
