Wayfarer - Sleeper Lyrics

I had a dream that I was sleeping
I fell asleep to stay awake
I found these secrets made me darker, made me fade
You woke up dreaming we were home here
You fell asleep not thinking straight
How can a mediocre son do something great?
He'd likely father just the same

But it felt so sweet
Each time I'd leave
Each time I'd forget about the simple ways
You'd remind me how you weren't thinking of me
You only call when I'm asleep

I'm splitting seams
I'm splitting where you swear we're mending
I'm splitting seams
And they're splitting me

I know Speed River topped those old banks
Summer drowned in all the rain
I still think one half is suspended in that stream
The other finds its way up north there
About once a month it slips away
I start to think it might never come back to me

I'm splitting seams
I'm splitting where you swear we're mending
I'm splitting seams
And they're splitting me

They burn the way I wish I could
The way I always swore I would
They burn the way I wish I could
The ways I always swore I

You were happy there that much I see
You were happy there, nothing to do with me
A lesson I should heed
