lyrics

Woken By Owls

This space by my side is cold and I know that it’s
Because of my pride and the way that I show it, if
I’d kept it inside you’d still be here but
It’s late and I am woken by owls.

Your scent haunts the bed and I breathe in your pillowcase
As I’m filling my head with the light of your smiling face,
Then I know that instead of sleeping I have to face
The fact that I am woken by owls.

It’s late in the night and I know now what’s going on.
Nothing is right and my hunger for you is strong.
But you’re out of sight in the darkness and here I lie
Broken and woken by owls.

And I know when I sleep you’ll be there in my broken dreams
And still I’ll act cheap, drive you far from me and it seems
I’m stuck in this heap, no way out, and I know that
I would rather be woken by owls.

I would rather be woken by owls.
I would rather be woken by owls.


No owls were hurt in the writing of this lyric, but a vole experienced a frisson of existential angst.
