Sleep Standing Up

You like to think that you're slick
Floating around in secret over the street
I can make out your silhouette
Casting shadow puppets through the screen

Stay out of sight
Blending into the background when it gets dark
I can only see you if I squint my eyes really hard

You pick a safe place to hide
But I keep track of the shadows on the walls
Dancing over the flames
Give your hiding spots away

If I could sleep standing up
If I could slip out of consciousness for a while
Eyes forgot how to shut
If I could remember a dream after it was done

Little moth’s wings
Little moth's wings
Little moth's wings
