I know I’ve seen your face somewhere
Selling something, some big idea
I know I’ve seen that vacant stare
Selling sunsets for somebody else
You find yourself asking yourself
What is any of it worth?
You find yourself looking up at night
From the bottom of the earth
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore
And oh, did your sheep start jumping
They grow out their teeth
Did they need a little something more, than this?
The taste of trouble on your lips
‘Cause now they’re bitin’ at your thoughts
You tell yourself just to turn away
But you know you’ve already lost
The smell of rain when it’s on a wind
Can never be paid in full
You try in vain to account for this mess
And everything that you stole
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore
And oh, did your sheep start jumping
They grow out their teeth
Did they need a little something more, than this?
‘Cause now they’re bitin’ at your feet
They got you running from this place
And now they’re breathing down your neck
Your eyes look lonely in your face
I see you looking just out of frame
What is it pulling you there?
‘Cause things can never the stay the same
So what is keeping you here?
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore
And oh, did your sheep start jumping
They grow out their teeth
And need a little something now
Every time you think, well they’d be biting at your thoughts
And every time you blink
Well you’ll be so damn far
But you want more, than this
I know I’ve seen your face somewhere
