Fast Asleep - Voxtrot

Everybody wants a piece of some easy enterprise

Can’t this world cut your face and carry the news that you’ve got a gift to be

given?

Cut it out cut your loss, we don’t dream we fantasize

And this is how we measure the cost of enjoying the pain of 21 year of good

living

When you look at me do you see someone with a future?

Music to my ears it makes you happy when you tell me

This place is like a womb you live so well from doing nothing

One day you will learn there is some beauty in the thing that makes you sweat

Gotta take something great just to get me out of bed

And I woke up with a song 'cause I had a dream, yes I had a vision of people

Lying in the sun

Sleeping on the rocks and stones

Waiting just to die

They were just fast asleep like lions

They were just fast asleep like lions in summer

When you look at me do you see someone with a future?

Music to my ears it makes me happy when you tell me

This place is like a womb you live so well from doing nothing

One day you will learn there is some beauty in the thing that makes you

Swear all the years of wasted time

Half divine

Half what you could be

Oh, all this time they let this city

Get sad and empty

'cause they’re only half awake

When you look at me do you see someone with a future?

One day you will learn there is some beauty in the thing that makes you sweat
