Insomniac cover art

Songtexte

[Intro]
Eyes wide
Clock slow
Head loud
Breath low (yeah)

[Verse 1 – Female]
Bed is an island
Sheets feel like glow
Thoughts run in circles
Round and round they go

Ceiling like static
Shadows on the wall
Counting the cracks now
I’m answering every call

[Chorus – Female]
I’m an insomniac
Can’t turn the night off, night off
Heart doing flash attacks
Racing the time off, time off

If I close my eyes
I only fall deeper, deeper
I’m an insomniac
Dreams getting cheaper, cheaper

[Verse 2 – Male Rap]
2 a.m., screen blue, doom scroll, same loop
Mind like a long queue, every fear in the group
Old texts, missed calls that I never returned
All the bridges I lit just to watch ’em burn

Fan hum, that’s the soundtrack, spinning in place
Every “what if” running a relay race
Told myself “tomorrow” ’til tomorrow ran out
Now it’s me and my doubts in a twelve-round bout (uh)

[Pre-Chorus – Female]
Head on the pillow, but it’s not resting
Every little memory testing, pressing
Eyes getting heavy, but they won’t shut
Heartbeat banging on my ribs like a door stuck shut

[Chorus – Female]
I’m an insomniac
Can’t turn the night off, night off
Heart doing flash attacks
Racing the time off, time off

If I close my eyes
I only fall deeper, deeper
I’m an insomniac
Dreams getting cheaper, cheaper

[Bridge – Female + Male]
[Beat strips back, bass and vocal only]
(Female) One sheep, two sheep, lost count, no sleep
(Male) One fear, two fears, secrets I keep
(Female) Breathe in, breathe out, try to relax
(Male) Brain runs laps on the same old tracks (yeah)

(Female) Moon’s my witness, knows my name
(Male) Same four walls, same mind games
(Both) If morning comes before I crash
Will I still be stuck in the same night trap?

[Chorus – Female + Male Ad-libs]
I’m an insomniac
Can’t turn the night off, night off (can’t switch it)
Heart doing flash attacks
Racing the time off, time off (tick tick)

If I close my eyes
I only fall deeper, deeper (so deep)
I’m an insomniac
Dreams getting cheaper, cheaper

[Outro – Female]
Eyes wide
Clock slow
If sleep won’t find me
Where do I go (where do I go)
