Lyrics Sleeping Creatures - Tristan Miller

In the hall
Walking to
Where I had come
Holding roses
Wishing you
Would give me one
So I sought out your heart
Your friends could tell you're thoughts were lingering on
A feeling of love you haven't felt for far too long
You think it will be years before a boy sings you a song
But that is where you're wrong
Praying you are wrong

Oh my little girl
I can't read your eyes
And that leaves me afraid
So tell me when you're here
Like a sleeping creature
Lurking in the night
Stumbling through life
I'll know when you're near
Yeah, I'll know when you're near

I approach
You from behind
Try to make
My presence known
Don't be shy
And I cannot forget
The way your shoulder sagged as I called your name
I said that I was good you said you felt much the same
You pulled me to the side as your fake smile left your frame
To think you'd see the day
Living out the day

Oh my little girl
I can't read your eyes
And that leaves me afraid
So tell me when you're here
Like a sleeping creature
Lurking in the night
Stumbling through life
I'll know when you're near
Yeah, I'll know when you're near

I won't beat you down
You've been beaten around
On every single feature
Oh how you've tasted strife
I'd kick the life out of anyone who lays a hand on you

Oh my little girl
I have picked my side
So please don't be afraid
There's no one else here
Like some sleeping creatures
Dreaming through the night
You're my shining light
I'll be ever near
Yeah, I'll be ever near
