Lyrics

[00:03.65] Megadeth---sleepwalker
[00:52.58] I should be calling collect from jail
[00:54.76] For the things I commit each night in my head
[00:57.94] Like last night in my sleep I got to snuff you
[01:00.38] But then I woke up again, safe in my little bed
[01:10.38] I come to take your life
[01:10.43] No one is safe when I close my eyes;
[01:14.48] I get to force your untimely disappearance
[01:16.91] Each night in my dreams, when I'm fast asleep
[01:19.54] I close my eyes and you just vanish soon as I
[01:22.55] Lay down my head when I'm dead to the whole wide world
[01:27.72] No one is safe when I close my eyes;
[01:32.22] I come to take your life
[01:36.86] And then I wake up and it was all just a dream
[01:42.09] And everything is the same
[01:44.45] Sleepwalker Did I give you concrete shoes?
[01:47.98] And throw you off of a bridge
[01:50.05] Sleepwalker When I lay down to sleep
[01:51.37] Pray your soul's mine to keep,
[01:53.55] I feel you near me
[02:00.63] Go to sleep, Sleepwalker
[02:08.42] Just taking a stroll; don't go to sleep!
[02:13.53] Here's some toothpicks for your eyes!
[02:17.44] You always make an excellent cadaver
[02:20.00] I roll your body up in a carpet to make music in the
[02:22.87] Trunk of my limousine, wrapped up in a rug
[02:27.36] A fitting end, is that I send you up the river like a punk
[02:30.31] No one is safe when I close my eyes;
[02:35.67] I come to take your life
[02:39.50] The angel of death is pissed off at me again
[02:41.36] Just because I got to put you out of my misery
[02:44.73] It doesn't matter, I am without fear
[02:47.02] Now you're dead, I won't shed another bloody tear for you
[02:52.64] No one is safe when I close my eyes;
[02:57.31] I come to take your life
[03:01.85] I'm calling down the thunder, then you'll sleep with the fishes
[03:07.12] The answer to all of my wishes
[03:09.87] Sleepwalker Did I tell you I was in movies?
[03:13.03] Then dump you garroted, lying naked in a ditch
[03:15.51] Sleepwalker Everyday, another way, I know you can hear me
[03:32.88] Solo Mustaine
[03:40.91]
[03:46.59] Solo Drover
[04:06.10] I think you'd look nice in a Colombian necktie
[04:09.18] Should stop your tongue from wagging the dog
[04:11.93] No more stupidity from you, as I pull your tongue through
[04:15.22] For a smile from ear to ear, now there's nothing to hear
[04:19.91] No one is safe when I close my eyes;
[04:24.58] I come to take your life
[04:29.06] And then I wake up and it was all just a dream
[04:34.26] And everything is still the same
[04:37.33] Sleepwalker Did I give you concrete shoes?
[04:40.06] And throw your body off of a bridge
[04:42.34] Sleepwalker When I lay down to sleep
[04:43.21] Pray your soul is mine to keep, I feel you near me
[04:47.80] Sleepwalker Or did I tell you I was in movies?
[04:51.18] Then dump you garroted, lying naked in a ditch
[04:54.03] Sleepwalker Everyday, another way, I know you can hear me
[04:58.72] Sleepwalker Did I buy you the farm?
[05:02.27] Put a horse head in your bed
[05:04.40] Sleepwalker When I lay down to sleep
[05:06.38] Pray your soul is mine to keep, I feel you near me
[05:09.43] Sleepwalker Everyday
[05:12.62] Everyday another way
[05:15.13] Sleepwalker When I lay down to sleep
[05:16.02] Pray your soul is mine to keep, I know you can hear me
[05:25.99] Sleepwalker
