When you sleep
Where do your fingers go?
What do your fingers know?
What do your fingers show?
Where do your fingers go?
When you sleep
Do they tremble on
The edge of the bed
Or do you fold them
Neatly by your head?
Do they clench like claws
Against your own skin?
When you're living
Your day all over again?
When you sleep
When you sleep
Where do your fingers go?
What do your fingers know?
What do your fingers show?
Where do your fingers go?
Yeah
Do they play guitar in a Latin bar?
Are they strangers or lovers?
Do they drive your car?
Are they swimming submissively?
Sex acts of life?
Or just cutting through jello
With a very sharp knife?
Now Zeus was a womanizer
Always on the make
But Hera usually punished
Her that Zeus was one to take
When you sleep
Where do your fingers go?
Are they pulling out weeds
From the dusty soil?
But then never
Rewarded with the
Fruits of their toil
Are they scratching their nails?
On the chalkboards of death
Only seeking attention
When everyone in
The room has left?
When you sleep
When you sleep
Where do your fingers go?
What do your fingers know?
What do your fingers show?
Where do your fingers go?
When you sleep
Do they tremble on
The edge of the bed
Or do you fold them
Neatly by your head?
