Do You Sleep?

Do you eat, sleep, do you breathe me anymore?
Do you sleep, do you count sheep anymore?
Do you sleep anymore?
Do you take plight on my tongue like lead?
Do you fall gracefully into bed anymore?

[Chorus 1]
I saw you as you walked across my room.
You looked out the window, you looked at the moon.
And you sat on the corner of my bed,
And you smoked with the ghost in the back of my head.

[Chorus 2]
Now, I don’t know, and I don’t care
If I ever will see you again.
I don’t know, and I don’t care
If I ever will be there, oh, whoa.

Do you eat, sleep, do you breathe me anymore?
Do you sleep, do you keep my anymore?
You kick my foot under the table.
I kick you back; I can’t say I’m able
To stand for you or fall for you ever again.
Wish for a perfect setting?
Wishing that I am letting you
Take me where you want me all over again?
You can’t give yourself
Absolutely to someone else

[Chorus 2]
[Chorus 1]

Do you eat, sleep, do you breathe me anymore?
Do you sleep, do you count sheep anymore?
Do you sleep anymore?
I don’t know, and I don’t care
If I ever will be there, will be there.


here, in lisa's own words, the meaning of this song:

"There's this dual emotional thing. Half is when you're that involved with somebody - you eat, sleep, and breathe the person: the other half is when the relationship is over - on the one hand you're still longing for this person to want you the same way, but on the other hand you don't ever want to see them again. This song explores the full range of emotions you go through in and after a relationship."
