lirik lagu stoneman - the elusive hand of sleep
[chorus: stoneman & james gorczyca]
is ye a man or a mouse in the grandfather clock?
tick tock, i was lost in the lot
like a fist to the jaw, came the hand so elusive
when all appeared lost, neither mortal nor god
i was right, i was wrong, it don’t matter, these fingers are long
when the palm of sleep takes you
take a step, took a step, faithful
in its grasp pulled through the depths, i’m grateful
pull me down to an abyss
thought that i was in it deep from the beginning, yeah
holding on with a fierce grip
this sh~t won’t let me go, i think it’s time for acceptance
pull me down to an abyss
thought that i was in it deep from the beginning, yeah
holding on with a fierce grip
this sh~t won’t let me go, i think it’s time for acceptance
[verse 1: stoneman]
i was in the backseat, me and my bottle
pulling from the glassy, never no model
strike a deal, barter, quick with it, we busy getting to industries
there ain’t no mo’f~cking sympathy
beaten from boots to the tip of my symmetry
i try to speak with a sprinkle of imagery
if you ain’t know me, you better get into me
i got no rivals, opponents, or enemies
send me downstream in a matchstick box
this elastic clock stretch chapters
i’ll close my eyes, know again i’ll rise
till then, stone food for blathers
sleep is a luxury
i was blithing and bl~stering, but subside in the drudgery
how could you stunt on me?
when there’s only the one of me and the duke of the d~mned
[chorus: stoneman & james gorczyca]
is ye a man or a mouse in the grandfather clock?
tick tock, i was lost in the lot
like a fist to the jaw, came the hand so elusive
when all appeared lost, neither mortal nor god
i was right, i was wrong, it don’t matter, these fingers are long
when the palm of sleep takes you
take a step, took a step, faithful
in its grasp pulled through the depths, i’m grateful
pull me down to an abyss
thought that i was in it deep from the beginning, yeah
holding on with a fierce grip
this sh~t won’t let me go, i think it’s time for acceptance
pull me down to an abyss
thought that i was in it deep from the beginning, yeah
holding on with a fierce grip
this sh~t won’t let me go, i think it’s time for acceptance
[verse 2: james gorczyca]
all i ever known was sleep or sit
i’ll accept this, it won’t make a difference
in the end, at least someone’s there to comfort
i’d rather have it this way than to suffer
i forgot the feeling of a gentle touch
palm of melatonin, suck away the fuss
i forgot the feeling of a gentle touch
palm of melatonin, suck away the fuss
knock my ass to sleep
i won’t writhe or scream
drag my body down
i rest forever now
and when the darkness seeps
i’ll meet the one who reaps
“i need to put you down”
i rest forever now
