Sleep Alone by Two Door Cinema Club

Know

My only goal is to see

When I'm only fast asleep

It takes more than strength
To find

This piece of mind
So I'll hold, hold, hold, hold it close
To my heart beating with every step
Hold, hold, hold it close

He sleeps alone
He needs no army
Where he's headed 'cause he knows
That they're just ghosts
And they can't hurt him
If he can't see them (oh oh oh)
And I may go
To places I have never been to just to find
The deepest desires in my mind

We
We only know what we see

'Cause we're always fast asleep

'Cause it's so hard not
To believe

That we'll never know
(Oh oh) hold, hold, hold, hold me close
I've never been this far from home
Hold, hold, hold me close

He sleeps alone
He needs no army
Where he's headed cause he knows
That they're just ghosts
And they can't hurt him
If he can't see them (oh oh oh)
And I may go
To places I have never been to just to find
The deepest desires in my mind
...
It's in my head, and I have said
That I must be like him now
He sleeps alone
He sleeps alone
...
One last chance to make sense
Of what is long escaped us
He sleeps alone
I sleep alone

He sleeps alone
He needs no army
Where he's headed 'cause he knows
That they're just ghosts
And they can't hurt him
If he can't see them (oh oh oh)
And I don't know
If in the morning
I will be here and if so
Let it be known
That I was worthy
I was worthy, I was worthy, I was
