Pacing the Hallway, Half Past Two
by Vanta Lux
“Half past two and I walk the hall. A sister piece to the earlier insomnia songs, but gentler now.”

Lyrics
Half past two, the house is still I walk the hall, I walk it still The floor is cool, the lamp is low Where am I going? I don't know Can't sleep, can't sleep Walking in the dark Can't sleep, can't sleep Soft light, quiet heart The window shows a sleeping street A cat goes by on silent feet The clock ticks on, the stars are high I watch the slow and quiet sky Can't sleep, can't sleep Walking in the dark Can't sleep, can't sleep Soft light, quiet heart Breathe in, breathe out Morning will come Can't sleep, can't sleep Walking in the dark Can't sleep, can't sleep Soft light, quiet heart
