Lyrics
[Guitar intro]
I'm asleep...
I am asleep...
I'm asleep...
I am asleep...
[Verse]
Close my eyes, I'm gone so deep,
Sinking to the very bottom of my mind.
And it may be morning, but I'll still be asleep.
I have no feelings, and I am blind.
[Verse 2]
Storms can rage and winds can roar,
And Lightning can strike outside my door.
Despite all of this, I'll just snore and snore.
I'm sleeping, don't care, that's all.
[Chorus]
You may ask me: "Did you feel the earthquake last night?"
I'll answer: "No, I was asleep..."
"But you could hear the loudest thunder besides."
"No, I was down in my dreams so deep."
You can try to wake me up, when the stars just blow
Or when the aliens arrive to destroy the human kind,
But I assure you, I will just brush it off
And turn over on my other side.
[Instrumental interlude]
[Verse 3]
Mountains can crumble to dust, seas can part,
But nothing can stir my dreamy heavy head.
Bombs can explode and loud engines start,
But my body won't wake me up, it doesn't care.
[Verse 4]
You know, I'm not that cold-blooded.
But as if I don't have a heartbeat, I'm lying still,
It's warm or cold here, don't think about it,
I'm dead or alive, it's not big deal
[Chorus]
You may ask me: "Did you feel the earthquake last night?"
I'll answer: "No, I was asleep..."
"But you could hear the loudest thunder besides."
"No, I was down in my dreams so deep."
You can try to wake me up, when the stars just blow
Or when the aliens arrive to destroy the human kind,
But I assure you, I will just brush it off
And turn over on my other side.
[Bridge]
But do you know what's the weirdest thing 'bout all?
If a quiet alarm clock rings in the dorm
Of a neighbor, who lives from me in three doors
And even on the other wall...
[Break]
[Silent melancholic bridge]
Somehow
I'll wake up.
Tested in practice.
Don't know how,
Don't know why.
But now you know the tactics.
[Hook]
Close my eyes, I'm gone so deep,
Sinking to the very bottom of my mind.
And it may be morning, but I'll still be asleep.
I have no feelings, and I am blind.
[Chorus]
You may ask me: "Did you feel the earthquake last night?"
I'll answer: "No, I was asleep..."
"But you could hear the loudest thunder besides."
"No, I was down in my dreams so deep."
You can try to wake me up, when the stars just blow
Or when the aliens arrive to destroy the human kind,
But I assure you, I will just brush it off
And turn over on my other side.
[Outro]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I will sleep through anything
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
And for some reason I'm glad about it
[End]
[Outro]
