[The Killers - Sleepwalker lyrics]
Um, I hunt elk and deer, um, turkeys
Just around here
Um, I've hunted antelope, um and growing up
We had to be twelve before we could hunt
And now they've lowered it to as soon as
You pass hunter's safety, you can hunt, so
I had to wait until I was twelve
As long as you can hold up a
Gun and know how to shoot it
Hey, sleepwalker, don't you miss the way
Wildflowers paint the western hills?
Or the first autumn
Whisper mid-September brings
And the glowy excitement that it builds?
Everyone is afraid of something
Evеn the strongest man alive
Hеy, sleepwalker
We went walking in the western hills
And we picked you wildflowers
You gotta open your eyes
Hey, dreamcatcher
Come out and see the leaves
The mountainside's all watermelon red
Soon enough, they're gonna rust and fall
Leave the mountainside cold and bare
But when the longer days of sun appear
They'll be rising like an answered
Prayer and I know that
Everyone is afraid of losing
Even the ones that always win
Hey, sleepwalker
When the mountain comes back to life
It doesn't come from without
It comes from within
The hills are barren
But we look for what's to come
Sweeter skies and longer days of sun
When you wake up
I'll be standing in the line
To kiss your eyes and wipe
The tears from mine
'Cause everyone is afraid of something
Even the strongest man alive
Hey, sleepwalker
Western Bluebells and Painted Cups
Are getting ready to rise it's time to begin
It doesn't come from without
It comes from within
Just around here
Um, I've hunted antelope, um and growing up
We had to be twelve before we could hunt
And now they've lowered it to as soon as
You pass hunter's safety, you can hunt, so
I had to wait until I was twelve
As long as you can hold up a
Gun and know how to shoot it
Hey, sleepwalker, don't you miss the way
Wildflowers paint the western hills?
Or the first autumn
Whisper mid-September brings
And the glowy excitement that it builds?
Everyone is afraid of something
Evеn the strongest man alive
Hеy, sleepwalker
We went walking in the western hills
And we picked you wildflowers
You gotta open your eyes
Hey, dreamcatcher
Come out and see the leaves
The mountainside's all watermelon red
Soon enough, they're gonna rust and fall
Leave the mountainside cold and bare
But when the longer days of sun appear
They'll be rising like an answered
Prayer and I know that
Everyone is afraid of losing
Even the ones that always win
Hey, sleepwalker
When the mountain comes back to life
It doesn't come from without
It comes from within
The hills are barren
But we look for what's to come
Sweeter skies and longer days of sun
When you wake up
I'll be standing in the line
To kiss your eyes and wipe
The tears from mine
'Cause everyone is afraid of something
Even the strongest man alive
Hey, sleepwalker
Western Bluebells and Painted Cups
Are getting ready to rise it's time to begin
It doesn't come from without
It comes from within
