In & Out
The Sleepwalkers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every now and then
You're an angel burned in a headache
But I can call you friend
A friend to the lies and mistakes
That you make again and again

I don't mind
Burnin' all my time
Waitin' for somethin'
Yer never gonna find
I watch you over and over my friend
Falling in and out and in and out of love
Again and again and again
Again and again and again

Every now and then
You'll stand on the road to destruction
This road will never end
When you're stranded and dazed by corruption
Of a new regime that's yet to begin

I don't mind
Burnin' all my time
Waitin' for somethin'
Yer never gonna find
I watch you over and over my friend
Falling in and out and in and out of love
Again and again and again
Again and again and again

Glass hearts don't break anymore
They're just full up of concrete and steam
Up on the downside and in through the out door
Detached from real life and living in dreams

I don't mind
Again and again
I don't mind
Again and again
I don't mind
Again and again
I don't mind

I don't mind
Again and again
I don't mind
Again and again
I don't mind
Again and again
I don't mind
Again and again

I don't mind
Burnin' all my time
Waitin' for somethin'
Yer never gonna find
I watch you over and over my friend
Falling in and out and in and out of love
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
YUP

I don't mind
Again and again
I don't mind
Again and again
I don't mind
Again and again




I don't mind
Again and again
