"Slow Talkerz" lyrics

"Slow Talkerz"

Sleeping, lurking in your bead and home
The shadow sleepers selling their own skin and bones
"For those that will follow me
You can find anything you need"
When I saw the hearts that the strangers keep
I saw a pale sort a thing
I saw the light sailing out to sea
Oh and it's the downfall of me
Oh me, the downfall of me

Just a family man
What a communist
Such a simple plan
For an easy death
But you're so scared you'll be losing sleep
So you wait for the dogs
To call the slow talkers

All along, sit and sing my song
The shadow sleepers breaking in
Your head and in your home
Light the fire that they won't deny
They want the light
And the fight
And everything inside
But they say that you want me
You say you want everything
You won't lie when you follow me
You won't leave until you fall asleep
You say why, why, why
Why, why, why
Why, why, why

Just a family man
What a communist
Such a simple plan
For an easy death
Left your easy thrill
For that young mistress
You'd give your own right hand
Just to save her death
