"Sleepwalking" lyrics

"Sleepwalking"

(Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone)

What a shame, what a shame, what a shame
It's all fun and games 'til you don't wanna play now
Run away, run away, run away
It's easy to see, but it's harder to say now

You're on to something else
I'm a picture left on your shelf
The dream's a lie I tell myself
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone

Wide awake but it just feels wrong
Stay in bed 'til a whole year's gone
Wake me up when it's over
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone
Medicate 'til my brain goes numb
Like a dream where your feet won't run
Stuck in place, paralyzed, I
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone, gone
(Sleepwalking when you're gone, gone)

Took a flight to the West Coast
I fell asleep at the window
Suddenly I feel my body
Fallin' fast into visions of you

Movin' on to someone else
I'm a picture left on your shelf
And the dream's a lie I tell myself
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone

Wide awake but it just feels wrong
Stay in bed 'til a whole year's gone
Wake me up when it's over
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone
Medicate 'til my brain goes numb
Like a dream where your feet won't run
Stuck in place, paralyzed, I
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone, gone
(Sleepwalking when you're gone, gone)

What a shame, what a shame, what a shame
It's all fun and games 'til you don't wanna play now
Run away, run away, run away
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone

(Feel like I'm sleepwalking)

Wide awake but it just feels wrong
Stay in bed 'til a whole year's gone
Wake me up when it's over
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone
Medicate 'til my brain goes numb (Goes numb)
Like a dream where your feet won't run (Won't run)
Stuck in place, paralyzed, I
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone

Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone, gone, gone...

Frontman Alex Gaskarth told about this track released with its music video on the 7th of October, 2022, “'Sleepwalking' is a reflection on time spent away from whatever it is that makes you feel alive, on time lost to the weight of dragging feet and drifting thoughts. As we were working on this song, we considered our place in a changing world – we realised just how affected we were as individuals by time spent away from our most familiar life-lines, and how grateful we are now to come together with those people, places and things… our friends, families, touring, shows, art and the energy and perspective that comes with real, raw connection. Our time spent away from our most beloved dreams felt like being on cruise-control, going through the motions in a trance."
