When You Sleep

When You Sleep - Angie Hart

I'm so sorry

I'm so stubborn

Deaf in one ear

And out the other

I'm just like my mother

And hers before hers before hers

I'm working so hard

To understand myself

I can't begin to know you

Though I've memorised your face

Beside me on the pillow

Dreaming of a super hero

I wish I saw what you do when you sleep

In all my dreams

I'm a helpless

Humiliated creep

I wish I was the girl

Behind you are rem

Every day you look at me and

Tell me that I am
