Lyrics Bastille – Sleepsong

Don’t talk to strangers

Oh, in the strangest dreams, walking by your side
It is the hole and you impose upon your life
When you’re out loneliness, it crawls up in the crowd

Oh you go to sleep on your own
And you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone
It’s a last resort

All you want is someone onto whom you can cling
Your mother warned of strangers and the dangers they may bring
Your dreams and memories are blurring into one
The seams which hold the waking world have slowly come undone

You’ll come undone

Oh you go to sleep on your own
And you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone
It’s a last resort

You go to sleep on your own
And you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone
It’s a last resort

Oh

Don’t talk to strangers
And don’t walk into danger
Don’t talk to strangers
And don’t walk into danger

Oh you go to sleep on your own
And you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone

You go to sleep on your own
And you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone
It’s a last resort

Don’t talk to strangers

Oh you go to sleep on your own
And you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone
It’s a last resort…
