Placebo - Narcoleptic Lyrics






Slip and stumble at my first offences
It's not treason, it's no lie
You talk in paragraphs
I write my sentence
It's not treason, it's no lie

It seemed a place for us to dream [x2]

Crush and crumble under your defenses
It's not treason, it's no lie
You frame the photograph
I sit on fences
Change of season, love can die

It seemed a place for us to dream [x4]

If we tear out the tumor
It's later, never sooner
If we tear out the tumor
It's later, never sooner

It seemed a place for us to dream [x2]

You'd better keep it in check
Or you'll end up a wreck
And you'll never wake up
You'd better keep it in check
Or you'll end up a wreck
And you'll never wake up
Wake up [x3]

It seemed a place for us to dream [x2]

You'd better keep it in check
Or you'll end up a wreck
And you'll never wake up [x4]
Wake up

    this song reminds me of my family and the life of a real home. before divorce made the walls open up and reality kicked in. even as a young adult its a memory that still needs healing. this song motivates me just as much as a song can it also brings the blues comfortably

    A Place For Us To Dream... ⏳🔒📝📝 Love P L A C E B O.

  24. l.... h....

    this song to me is a message that you cannot sleep forever and by sleep I mean procrastinating, running away from the things that need to be done, from your duties and making decisions about life. this year is my final school year and I feel like there's no future, I don't wanna do anything cause cause I don't know what I want from life. so I do nothing. this song reminds me of the fact that time goes on, sooner or later I will have to do something with my life and go in one or another direction or at least I can do something that I don't hate until I realise what I want but not degrade sitting still.

  25. L.... T....

    "It's a song about the passing of love...drugs and love are one big pillow and they can make you forget about so many things and they can make you forget about living and put you into a somnambulistic state, like sleep walking" - Brian Molko (2000).

    A.... F....

    +Antonio Foglia totally...

    A.... F....

    And what´s wrong about that ?

    A.... F....

    I don't think there's any judgment in that quote whatsoever, just a statement.

    A.... F....

    Ha ha the two parallel highs..classic.
