"bedbugs" lyrics

3:00am
Laying in bed
Fighting off my tired eyes
Wrap myself in white noise
Drown out the thoughts in my mind
Apparently counting sheep
Just doesn't get me too far
'Cause by the time I get to five
Four three two one
There you are

I see you in REM
And it rips the bandaid off again
When I wake when I wake when I wake up
I still feel the pain all the same, love

I see you in REM
What seemed so real, was all pretend
When I wake when I wake when I wake up
You're gone again
Until the next night

No I don't
No I don't
Don't wanna sleep tonight
'Cause I know
'Cause I know
You gon' let the bedbugs bite

7:00am
Sun is peaking through my blinds
Imma hit snooze about 14 more times
Can't tell if the bluebird is singing or he's crying
Bittersweet tune, it could be a lullaby
Even in my dreams you don't speak, but you're right there
A ghost of who I once knew, does that make you a nightmare?
I'm running, but my feet don't move
My subconscious still can't shake you

So I see you in REM
And it rips the bandaid off again
When I wake when I wake when I wake up
I still feel the pain all the same, love

I see you in REM
What seemed so real, was all pretend
When I wake when I wake when I wake up
You're gone again
Until the next night

No I don't
No I don't
Don't wanna sleep tonight
'Cause I know
'Cause I know
You gon' let the bedbugs bite
