Dan Hannon - Sleeper 1972 lyrics

[Verse 1: Andy Hull] When my dad died The worms ate out both his eyes His soul flew right up in the sky I cried myself to sleep [Verse 2: Andy Hull] My mother lies Alone on her back at night Adding up hours till her demise She counts herself to sleep [Verse 3: Andy Hull] When my sister finds My body closed up like the blinds I tell her I promise, it's fine But she cries herself to sleep [Verse 4: Andy Hull] The men in black ties Arrive at the house in surprise To find a little girl by your side In the wood box where you're sleeping [Verse 5: Andy Hull] I still see you Inside of this god-awful house You move awfully quiet now And I still feel you everywhere [Verse 6: Andy Hull] You told me This has always been worth living But what's really worth Living anymore?
