Story Behind The Song
I was thinking about how busy we all are and losing sleep because of our stress. This song is about finding a faith to set us free from all that.
Song Description
When we feel a sort of 'dark night of the soul' we can try and remember the story of Jesus putting some mud on the eyes of a blind person . Faith set that person free from the darkness and we can be free if we also have faith.

Lyrics
Sleepwalker by Laura Bachynski.
Here I am. Awake again. And I know it's 2 a.m. without a glance .And this shouting in my mind assures me sleep just doesn't have a chance.
But everyday is always the same ...like balancing on a knife.
Staying the course. Keeping on top. Sleepwalking through my life.
CHORUS :
There was a story that I heard a very long time ago . I remember a man was blind from birth but knew just where to go.
Jesus put hands upon his eyes and the man could finally see .
Please won't you help this sleepwalker with faith to set me free.
'With faith to set me free.
Here I am . Alone again. But I think that if I called you'd soon be here. And the dark night of this soul would release its grip and finally disappear.
And maybe someday I'd learn to obey the truth that's in my heart.
And maybe I'd see in reality you've been there from the start .
To chorus.
