The Legendary Pink Dots
Slaapliedje
Can't stand this cage cos there's no place to fly to
My future's been cancelled, my past's just a lie
You say, "Do it alone", and I'm trying like hell
To rise up from the ashes, be somebody else
I shout my rage from the rooftops, burn down this shell
But you smile from the gallery, ringing a bell
And I jump, and I've jumped but the bars are still there
I know deep inside me you don't really care
You say, "Sleep baby. Sleep
It's all just a dream."
