about

The song is about insomnia, plain and simple. It’s something that has plagued me for years now, and it’s completely debilitating when it happens. It sucks not to be in control of your own mind and body. I’ve tried all manner of “home remedy”, most notably whiskey, pot, over the counter sleeping pills and bad TV. Sometimes nothing works.

lyrics

Every sound, a story, a distraction.
Memory, anxiety, reaction.
Tired but awake, I rest my eyes.

I see tomorrow through bloodshot eyes,
The longer I worry the worse the disguise.
The darkness, a blanket I’m trapped underneath
Insomnia take me, I call a defeat.

Sinking into thought, I’m underwater.
Chemicals don’t help, I think I’m drowning.
Trapped by my own mind, I’m paralysed.

I see tomorrow through bloodshot eyes,
The longer I worry the worse the disguise.
The darkness, a blanket I’m trapped underneath
Insomnia take me, I call a defeat.
