As I lie In my chamber I am waiting For a guilty lover to come crawling home Close my eyes I can hear the night-house talking I am snaking out my feelers Through the halls and under doorways I lie awake at sleeping time Awake at sleeping time What in the world? What in the world's happening to me? Heaven's above Heaven's above, this is killing me In this state I'm almost frantic I move out in all directions There are bodies moving outside There's a chill as I brush past them I lie wake at sleeping time Awake at sleeping time What in the world? What in the world's happening to me? Heaven's above Heaven's above, this is killing me Through the walls I can hear breathing Down the hall reluctant footsteps You have come to do your penance Doing nothing, you can do no more I am in the ground, I'm sinking Buried in the ground, I'm sinking I lie awake at sleeping time Awake at sleeping time What in the world? What in the world's happening to me? Heaven's above Heaven's above, this is killing me I'm fading, I'm failing What in the world is happening to me? I'm drifting, I'm shifting What in the world is happening to me?
