Past Self Lyrics – Sleep Token

[Chorus]

Well, are you gonna dance on the line with me?

You know it’s not a game or a fantasy

And I don’t even know who I used to be

But nothing is the same and some things have to change now

Are you gonna dance on the line with me?

You know it’s not a game or a fantasy

And I don’t even know who I used to be

But nothing is the same and some things have to change now

[Verse 1]

Clawed out of my woodwork

Bolts out of my blue depths

In and out of my dreamscapes

People acting different

One look at my past self

Double take on my cash flow

Apologising for s*it that frankly I stopped thinking of years ago

And you know I deliberate on cutting out the demons

I still need a dark side, they just need a reason

The passage of the hours into rushing through the seasons

Falling through my mind with the leaves on the trees, so

[Pre-Chorus]

Keep me alive, keep me believing

That now is the time to take it or leave it

Gave away all my blessings

Lift off, weightless

Torn apart by the true believers that turned out to be faithless

[Chorus]

Well, are you gonna dance on the line with me?

You know it’s not a game or a fantasy

And I don’t even know who I used to be

But nothing is the same and some things have to change now

Are you gonna dance on the line with me?

You know it’s not a game or a fantasy

And I don’t even know who I used to be

But nothing is the same and some things have to change now, now, now

[Verse 2]

Are you the guardian angel hacking into my brain cells?

Stepping up from my future, uploading my true self

Did I get this far for nothing, or are you the reward?

Guarding hounds in this hell house, opening new doors

[Pre-Chorus]

If this is love, then I am out of hesitation

Head over heels or elevation

Walking an inch above the pavement

Taking it stride by stride together

If this is real, then I am all up in a frenzy (Hmm-hmm-hmm)

Not like before when I was empty

Say that the story we tell is never-ending

Taking it side by side together (Side by side together)

[Chorus]

Well, are you gonna dance on the line with me?

You know it’s not a game or a fantasy

And I don’t even know who I used to be

But nothing is the same and some things have to change now

Well, are you gonna dance on the line with me?

You know it’s not a game or a fantasy

And I don’t even know who I used to be

But nothing is the same and some things have to change now, now, now

[Outro]

I just don’t want to be lost again

I just don’t want to be lost again

I just don’t want to be lost again

I just don’t want to be lost again
