Sleepwalker

Verse 1

Walking through days like I’m half alive

Smiling on cue just to get by

People talk but it sounds like noise

I nod my head, I play the part

I move fast but I feel so slow

Heart wide open but nobody knows

I learned young how to disappear

While standing right here

⸻

Pre-Chorus

Running on memories

Breathing on empty dreams

Trying to feel something real again

⸻

Chorus

I’ve been living like a sleepwalker

Eyes open but I’m dreaming still

Moving through love like a ghost in the dark

Touching hearts I can’t fully feel

I was alive but I wasn’t living

I was loud but nobody heard

Now I’m waking up from the silence

Finally feeling every word

⸻

Verse 2

I gave pieces of me away

Just to make sure nobody stayed

Alone with the parts I hide

Behind jokes and a confident smile

But something inside me cracked

And I can’t go back to that

I’d rather feel pain than nothing at all

Than live behind another wall

⸻

Pre-Chorus 2

No more surviving

No more just breathing

I wanna feel my life while I’m in it

⸻

Chorus

I’ve been living like a sleepwalker

Eyes open but I’m dreaming still

Moving through love like a ghost in the dark

Touching hearts I can’t fully feel

I was alive but I wasn’t living

I was loud but nobody heard

Now I’m waking up from the silence

Finally feeling every word

⸻

Bridge (very Yazy energy)

If I break — at least I know I’m real

If I cry — at least I know I feel

If I love — I’m giving all of me

Not just who I learned to be

I don’t wanna float through life unseen

I don’t wanna live inside a dream

If waking hurts — then let it hurt

At least I know I’m here on earth

⸻

Final Chorus (lift)

I was living like a sleepwalker

But I feel my heartbeat now

Every scar, every tear, every moment

Is pulling me back somehow

I’m not numb and I’m not hiding

I’m not who I was before

I’m wide awake in this life I’m fighting

And I’m not sleepwalking anymore
