I was slumbering, preoccupied with breathing fire and inhaling stars
Drinking rivers dry and stomping mountaintops
Opened my eyes to find my hair silver and grey
Crows feet and bags beneath my eyes
I have been fast asleep within a hundred thousand layers of my skin
What had become of me? What happened to my days?
I slept them all away and awoke another guy
I have been fast asleep within a hundred thousand layers of my skin
Called it quits more than I'll ever admit
Couldn't finish them; they'd finish me
Drifted down into the deepest waking sleep
With zero percent lucidity
I have been fast asleep within a hundred thousand layers of my skin
