Sleepwalker

Background
"Did you remember your flashlight?" First time using a Japanese vocaloid for an English song and it was honestly way harder than I expected. Hime is definitely one of my faves, I actually did try with Mikoto but Hime sounded a lot better for this. You might be thinking, this is Blackout part 2. I had written the lyrics and realised it was giving me real Blackout vibes, with the whole insomnia undertone so I did a similar sort of illustration. So you can think of it as a Blackout sequel if you like but I didn't intentionally draw parallels from it."

Lyrics
 Is anyone around to feel the drift Of itty bits, and dusty tension ticks I warned you about this The lighting leaks and seeps throughout our abyss

Keep the lights on Keep the lights on Keep your mind sharp Keep your mind sharp Keep the lights on Keep the lights on Keep your mind sharp Keep your mind sharp

Hush, hush baby You’re a deer In the headlights Hush, hush honey I’m a nightwalker Crawling through twilight Hush, hush baby I’m a strobe Like a traffic light I’m a sleepwalker Did you remember Your flashlight?

The air is lush with intermeshed regrets And so we wander through the silhouettes I told you about this Our skeletal psyche keeps us aimless

Turn the lights off Turn the lights off Close your eyes shut Close your eyes shut Turn the lights off Turn the lights off Close your eyes shut Close your eyes shut

Hush, hush baby You’re a deer In the headlights Hush, hush honey I’m a nightwalker Crawling through twilight Hush, hush baby I’m a strobe Like a traffic light I’m a sleepwalker Did you remember Your flashlight?

I’m a spectre hiding in the shadows Adrift in the meek surrealism I’m the smokiness behind the unknown Afloat in the deepest cynicism

Keep the lights on Keep the lights on Keep your mind sharp Keep your mind sharp Turn the lights off Turn the lights off Close your eyes shut Close your eyes shut

Hush, hush baby You’re a deer In the headlights Hush, hush honey I’m a nightwalker Crawling through twilight Hush, hush baby I’m a strobe Like a traffic light I’m a sleepwalker Did you remember Your flashlight?
