Sleeping with Giants (Lifetime) Lyrics
I've noticed
People, they all have motives
Different, yet all the same
I fumbled
Through every word that was spoken
And I barely knew your name
I'm tongue tied
It runs through my blood and my insides
Some things we can't escape
But if we try, if we try
We can leave this behind
It's been a lifetime
A lifetime we waited for
A simple question, kid
Are you with me, or not at all?
Your eyes wide
The always ahead of the curve type
Quiet and confident
We stood there
Awkward and youthful, we tangled
A piece of my soul escaped
Oh, we are restless inside
Of sleeping with giants
Of modern mankind
With their egos of fire
And it seems like
It's been a lifetime
A lifetime we waited for
A simple question, kid
Are you with me, or not at all?
Well, are we wasting time
Or is it wasting us?
It's been a lifetime waiting for now, now
Well, you've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
Before you fold in
It's been a lifetime
A lifetime I've waited for
A simple question, kid
Are you with me, or not at all?
Well, it's been a lifetime
A lifetime we waited for
I need an answer, kid
You're either with me, or not at all
Now, now
Well, are we wasting time
Or is it wasting us?
It's been a lifetime, a lifetime
A lifetime, lifetime, yeah
Well, you've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
Son, you've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
Before you fold in
People, they all have motives
Different, yet all the same
I fumbled
Through every word that was spoken
And I barely knew your name
It runs through my blood and my insides
Some things we can't escape
But if we try, if we try
We can leave this behind
A lifetime we waited for
A simple question, kid
Are you with me, or not at all?
The always ahead of the curve type
Quiet and confident
We stood there
Awkward and youthful, we tangled
A piece of my soul escaped
Of sleeping with giants
Of modern mankind
With their egos of fire
And it seems like
A lifetime we waited for
A simple question, kid
Are you with me, or not at all?
Well, are we wasting time
Or is it wasting us?
It's been a lifetime waiting for now, now
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
Before you fold in
A lifetime I've waited for
A simple question, kid
Are you with me, or not at all?
A lifetime we waited for
I need an answer, kid
You're either with me, or not at all
Now, now
Well, are we wasting time
Or is it wasting us?
It's been a lifetime, a lifetime
A lifetime, lifetime, yeah
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
Son, you've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
You've got to find a way
Before you fold in

I don't understand this song that much, but I love it. It's so beautiful, and it might be one of my favourites off of Santi so far. I love the line "Are we wasting time, or is it wasting us?" The lyrics on this album are really top-notch TAI...
i love it.
this is my favorite song on Santi. "are you with me or not at all?" i love williams voice. and his lyrics are incredible.
This is definately one of the best songs on Santi but I can't figure out quite what it means yet. I'm working on it!
i love this song. probably my second fave song on santi. but i can't quite put my tongue on this; what does it mean? perhaps making the best of life? perhaps? idk.
why does the into to this song sound exactly like a panic! song?
beckett need not lower himself to that level.
"why does the into to this song sound exactly like a panic! song?"
Oh yeah you're right it does... didn't notice that.
if you don't understand it you're the DB its about.....jk jk. one of my favorites so far.
could be about someone in his life that actually had an impact on him, and about them getting away from all the bullshit of fame.
but what do i know...
i think its about like a relationship. a really good one. A friend or a dating one. And they are growing apart, and they are trying not to.
