Текст песни The Sleepwalkers (Live, 2005 Leverkusen) - Van Der Graaf Generator
At
night,
this
mindless
army,
ranks
unbroken
by
dissent,
Is
moved
into
action
and
their
pace
does
not
relent.
In
step,
with
great
precision,
these
dancers
of
the
night
Advance
against
the
darkness
- how
implacable
their
might!
Eyes
undulled
by
moon,
their
arms
and
legs
akimbo,
They
walk
and
live,
hoping
soon
to
surface
from
this
limbo.
Their
minds,
anticipating
the
dawn
of
the
day,
Shall
never
know
what's
waiting
mere
insight
away
- Too
far,
too
soon.
Senses
dimmed
in
semi-sentience,
only
wheeling
through
this
plane,
Only
seeing
fragmented
images,
prematurely
curtailed
by
the
brain,
But
breathing,
living,
knowing
in
some
measure
at
least
The
soul
which
roots
the
matter
of
both
Beauty
and
the
Beast.
From
what
tooth
or
claw
does
murder
spring,
From
what
flesh
and
blood
does
passion?
Both
cut
through
the
air
with
the
pendulum's
swing
In
deadly
but
delicate
fashion.
And
every
range
of
feeling
is
there
in
the
dream
And
every
logic's
reeling
in
the
force
of
the
scream;
The
senses
sting.
And
though
I
may
be
dreaming
and
reality
stalls
I
only
know
the
meaning
of
sight
and
that's
all
And
that's
nothing.
The
columns
of
the
night
advance,
Infectiously,
their
cryptic
dance
Gathers
converts
to
the
fold
-
In
time
the
whole
raw
world
will
pace
these
same
steps
On
into
the
same
bitter
end.
Somnolent
muster
- now
the
dancing
dead
Forsake
the
shelter
of
their
secure
beds,
Awaken
to
a
slumber
whose
depths
they
dread,
As
if
the
ground
they
tread
would
give
way
Beneath
the
solemn
weight
of
their
conception.
I'd
search
the
hidden
corners
of
all
this
world,
Make
reason
of
the
sensory
whorl
If
I
only
had
time,
But
soon
the
dream
is
ended.
Tonight,
before
you
lay
down
to
the
sweetness
of
your
sleep
Do
you
question
your
surrender
to
the
drop
from
Lover's
Leap
Or
does
the
anaesthetic
darkness
take
hold
on
its
very
own?
Does
your
body
rise
in
service
with
not
one
dissenting
groan?
These
waking
dreams
of
life
and
death
In
the
mirror
are
twisted
and
buckled;
Lashes
flicker,
a
catch
of
breath,
Skin
whitening
at
the
knuckles.
The
army
of
sleepwalkers
shake
their
limbs
and
are
loose
And
though
I
am
a
talker,
I
can
phrase
no
excuse
Not
to
rise
again.
In
the
chorus
of
the
night-time
I
belong
And
I,
like
you,
must
dance
to
that
moonlight
song
And
in
the
end
I,
too,
must
pay
the
cost
of
this
life.
If
all
is
lost
none
is
known
And
how
could
we
lose
what
we've
never
owned?
Oh,
I'd
search
out
every
knowledge
that
I
could
find,
Unravel
all
the
mysteries
of
mind,
If
I
only
had
time,
If
I
only
had
time,
But
soon
my
time
is
ended.
