What does she mean by Like poppies, heavy with seed - They take me deeper and deeper. Oh I'll wake up to any sound of engines I can't be left to my imagination? i understand the rest. I love this song and until i saw these comments i thought it was about being sleepy but now i understand it!

its definitely about being sleepy.

@Katebushfan4lyfe when poppy heads turn to seed they become too heavy for their stems and droop forward. This is about losing the will to stay afloat
