Sleepwalkers
The Hundred and The Hands Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sleepwalking
I find myself
Follow my
Follow my

Sleepwalking
I find myself
I get lost, I get lost
Follow my
Follow my

How'd it start?
All starry eyed
Follow my
Follow my

Sleepwalking
I find myself
In shop windows
I get lost, I get lost
In all of my
All of my
Follow my
Follow my

Under June in disguise
Ugly silver skies
Summer blooms in you

Follow my
Follow my
Follow my
Follow my

Follow my
Follow my
Follow my
Follow my
Follow my
Follow my

You said, I might be dead
But I've been off for years
How's it, Delirium?
I was breathless, and
On my way down

Summer blooms in you

You said, I might be dead
But I've been off for years
How's it, Delirium?
I was breathless, and
On my way

I lost it all
On my way down
I lost it all
On my way down

Looking through walls
Out of reach, always
Saw us far from
Far from
Far from

Hand on your shoulder
Lean in closer

How's it end?

Follow my
Follow my

You said, I might be dead
But I've been off for years
How's it, Delirium?
I was breathless, and
On my way

I lost it all
On my way down
I lost it all
On my way down
I lost it all
On my way down




I lost it all
On my way down

Overall Meaning

The Hundred and The Hands’s song “Sleepwalkers” features a repeating theme of losing oneself in a dreamlike state. The repetition of “follow my” suggests a sense of disorientation or a lack of control, while the references to “shop windows” and “looking through walls” reinforce the theme of a disconnected or surreal experience. The lyrics “How’d it start? All starry eyed” introduce a sense of wonder or fascination with the state of sleepwalking, while the line “summer blooms in you” implies that the person or object being followed (perhaps an object in a shop window) is viewed with a sense of beauty or enchantment.


The repeated lines of “You said, I might be dead, but I’ve been off for years, how’s it, Delirium?” reference the idea of being disconnected from reality or experiencing a distorted sense of time. The repetition of “I lost it all, on my way down” adds to the feeling of a gradual loss of control or a descent into a surreal or altered state.


Overall, the lyrics of “Sleepwalkers” paint a picture of a dreamlike state in which the singer is lost and disoriented, yet still drawn in by the beauty and wonder of their surroundings.

This song has like a darkness about it, that gives it creepiness, but it has a thing about it that makes it sound so beautiful. Try to explain that to me? The mystery of music.
