Kesha - While You Were Sleeping Lyrics






So far away.
From the place where I feel safe.
And I cant recall,
The beauty in your face.
The distance, between us, stores its dirty seeds.
Spreading inside of me, with every breath I breathe.

While you were sleepin'
I was wondering with the lonely people.
While you were sleepin'
Trying to fill the void you've left.
Life is short and the nights are long.
And tonight I moved on.
While you were sleepin'

A stranger for the night,
So I don't wake up alone (all alone)
To fake what we had, (to fake)
But it doesn't feel like home.
The distance between us,
Grows its dirty seeds.
Consuming my insides,
With every breath I breathe.

While you were sleepin'
I was wondering with the lonely people,
While you were sleepin' (while you were sleeping)
Trying to fill the void you've left.
Life is short and the nights are long,
And tonight, I moved on.
While you were sleepin',

Don't look for me, don't wait for me.
I found my path. (while you were sleeping)
Over sticks and stones, over broken bones.
I won't look back. (while you were sleeping)
There's a place for you,
Somewhere in my heart.
But that's the past,

While you were sleepin' (while you were sleeping)
I was wondering with the lonely people.
While you were sleepin', (while you were sleeping)
Trying to fill the void you've left.
(tonight) life is short and the nights are long, (tonight) and tonight I moved on.
While you were sleepin'

  11. U.... ....

    Exactly well put and what I was thinking

  12. S.... ....

    Don't like Kesha, but a friend of mine told me to listen. It's not bad! Not usually a song I'd listen to but it's def. the nicest song I've heard by Kesha haha. :)

  13. U.... ....

    That was beautiful. Stupid dumbass record labels. All of the sincere Kesha songs don't get out there cause they want her to look only like a whorish, drunken, party animal all the time through society's eyes.

  14. V.... B....

    She can't release these kinds of songs for singles because she record label wont let her release ballads. She wanted to release Love Into the Light but they said no :/

  15. V.... B....

    follow @cheyannesuxx on twitter she's hilarious and a huge Kesha fan!!

  16. m.... k....

    People think she is empty and talentless, well this song is an obvious answer. I love you Kesha!

  17. N.... ....

    THIS NOT KE$HA!!!!!!!! Ke$ha has a dirty mind. Kesha doesn't. Just asking..... Who here likes the song Backstabber by Ke$ha?

  18. C.... D....

    KESHA is SOOOO Talented....

  19. T.... C....

    Fantastic #ThatIsAll

  20. n.... w....

  24. a.... ....

    i love this coment

  25. M.... ....

    Wow this is beautiful <3

  26. T.... ....

    -I cant recall the beauty in your face
    the distance between us grows its dirty seed
    consuming my insides with every breath I breathe <3

  27. K.... M....

    while you were sleepin.. i found this kesha song that almost made me cry... i love it soo much<3

  28. M.... W....

    Awwwww:)

  29. A.... N....

    Its weird to think Kesha can sound like this. popciclelover, you're totally right! This is Breathtaking and I think she needs to sing more songs like this and less songs like Bad Girld Lament. I do like her song Grow A Pear though!!! I Love you Kesha/Ke$ha!

  30. h.... ....

    Her next album is going to have less auto tune! And going to be more songs like this :) Vulnerable.
    Can't wait!

  31. f.... p....

    where is the exciting kesha??? D:

  32. I.... ....

    No...Ke$ha was a joke at first because she was broke and she didnt care( the $ )..not because of her dad. Kesha is her real name without $ sign....havnt u seen ant of her interviews??

  33. R.... S....

    yes!!!!! she's ke$ha 'cause she wanna be strong & beautiful 'cause she don't know her daddy!! and when she's kesha is a good girl ( more or less ^^)! evrybody says she 's commercial, but she's just herself and she is romantic.... sometimes....

  34. S.... M....

    I am in love with this song all of her songs are amazing but this and the harold song have a special place in my heart cos I really relate to them <3 xxxxxxxxx
    She is stunning if shes being the dirty and sexy Kesha or the soft and hurt Kesha singing about the pain she has experienced just because of how controversial she is <3 there arent enough hearts or kisses in the world xxxxxx

  35. l.... m....

    L.O.L! Good guess, good guess.

  36. L.... G....

    This is Kesha. Not Ke$ha.

    Ke$ha is Dirty and Beautiful

    Kesha is Breathtaking and Beautiful.

    There the same person, Just remember everyone has a different side of them. Some times you just got to take a break<3.

    YOU ROCK KESHA..KE$HA.!!!!!!!!!!!! Love yah!

  37. c.... i....

    I want to comment but idk what to comment UHHGGG SUCH A GOOD SONG COMPARED TO HER AUTOTUNED STUFFZ! Yup.... so thats my comment. Good day to you.

  38. m.... w....

    i like kesha and i like ke$ha but kesha is... breathtaking and beautiful

  39. Y.... ....

    THIS SONG IS AWESOME AND AMAZING
    THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE

  40. Z.... R....

  42. T.... ....

    This song is just...amazing <3

  43. E.... B....

    ......WHERE IS THE LOVE BUTTON YOUTUBE?!

  44. S.... P....

    when i clicked on this video i thought it was going to about her leaving a dude when he was asleep then partying some more and that it would be filled with autotune. damn was i wrong...

  45. t.... m....

    i like all the music she does the autotuned stuff and this stuff, she is a great artist ppl need to just wake up and realize that, she is versatile

  46. o.... n....

    omg a slow song by ke$ha

  47. r.... ....

    Obviously Kesha, jeez.

  48. I.... A....

  50. K.... a....

    she can definitely sing pretty songs when she wants to. great voice

  51. B.... D....

    That's because this is Kesha, not Ke$ha.

  52. K.... L....

  56. l.... ....

    What dick-head disliked this?

  57. E.... M....

    To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing "
    -Unknown

  58. A.... K....

    @154lolipop Ikr?! She has an amazing voice one way or the other!!

  61. k.... ....

    this song makes me feel alone and sad , but it''s so beautiful i can help mmyself from wanting to listen

  62. R.... ....

    @justinbieberandfrey7

    I like both sides of Ke$ha. Yes, she does sound nice singing, no auto-tune style and all that. But I also like jamming out to the Ke$ha on the radio, which she always seems diffrent than other songs. Ke$ha is like 2 diffrent people.
    Kesha- nice, smooth, sader songs
    Ke$ha- Rap, pop, party, etc

  63. R.... ....

    @justinbieberandfrey7

    If you like this song also try alot of her songs that arn't all famous: Goodbye, Harold song, etc

  64. s.... ....

    I love both sides of her <3

  65. L.... ....

    getting over Harold

  66. s.... ....

    @halloweenteen116
    amen

  67. A.... A....

    No autotune. No dislikes...
    This is how it should be. ♥

  68. x.... N....

    Why do I feel like this was directed at me? :(

  69. f.... b....

    this side of kesha is better than the other one...she sound good in all her sounds but i like this side of her!!! :)

  70. l.... f....

    few years ago two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later, the babysitter was calling to see if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids' room, the father said "Get the kids and get out of the house, we'll call the police, we don't have a clown statue". The "clown statue" was actually a killer that escaped from jail. If you don't post this on 10 videos tonight the clown will be in your bed at 3:00am with a chainsaw in his hand

    l.... f....
