Death Dream

Album: Painting Of A Panic Attack (2016)
Play Video
  • It was dawn and the kitchen light was still on
    I stepped in, found the suicide asleep on the floor
    An open mouth screams and makes no sound
    Apart from the ring of the tinnitus of silence
    You had your ear to the ground

    White noise
    I don't know if there's breathing or not
    Butterflied arms tell me that this one has flown
    Blood seems black against the skin of your porcelain back
    A still life is the last I will see of you
    A painting of a panic attack

    He died in his sleep last night
    He died in his sleep last night
    He died in his sleep last night
    He died in his sleep last night
    You died in his sleep last night
    You died in his sleep last night
    You died in his sleep last night
    You died in his sleep last night
    You died in his sleep last night
    You died in his sleep last night

    Death dreams you don't forget
    It's been a while since I dreamed this but
    Even now, when asleep, I'll tread with care
    Death dreams you don't forget
    It's been a while since I dreamed this but
    Even now, when asleep, I'll tread with care
    Death dreams I don't forget
    It's been a while since I dreamed this but
    Even now, when asleep, I'll tread with care
    Death dreams I don't forget
    It's been a while since I dreamed this but
    Even now, when asleep, I'll tread with care Writer/s: ANDY MONAGHAN, DAVID KENNEDY, GRANT HUTCHISON, SCOTT HUTCHISON, SIMON LIDDEL
