"Can't Sleep" lyrics
"Can't Sleep"
Maybe I've been slipping back, heading south, carsick on a Tuesday
Missing cash, blacking out, heartless in a few ways
Shit for luck, elbows shredded, I held things steady like too late
Please calm the fuck down, I'll do whatever you say
I get it, I get it, I'm living too hard and it's time that I stop it
But rising on up and then tumbling down well it's part of the process
Bar tabs on a hot night in a cold basement
You say I'm crazy but I feel amazing
My mother told me that the world has got its plans
I wanna hold em til they burn right through my hands
Don't ask me questions cause I'm tired of confessing
And I know that it's not much to say but I swear that I'd like to change
I can't sleep, I hope I stay awake
Cause I've been running, running, running all day
Long nights, no peace, I feel like everybody's eyes on me
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
I can't sleep, I hope I stay awake
Cause I've been running, running, running all day
Long nights, no peace, I feel like everybody's eyes on me
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Maybe I've been freaking out, moving quick, burning the wick at both ends
Screaming loud, stupid shit, scaring all of my old friends
Fell down on Bedford, hope that it's not broken
Safe to say I might have had too much of some of these potions
I love you so much, I'm staying here all night
Don't want to get up, I don't want to stop, I don't want to close my eyes
I'd rather not give a fuck and end up with some scars
The night's just long enough for me to build it all and let it fall apart
My mother told me that the world has got its plans
I wanna hold em til they burn right through my hands
Don't ask me questions cause I'm tired of confessing
And I know that it's not much to say but I swear that I'd like to change
I can't sleep, I hope I stay awake
Cause I've been running, running, running all day
Long nights, no peace, I feel like everybody's eyes on me
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
I can't sleep, I hope I stay awake
Cause I've been running, running, running all day
Long nights, no peace, I feel like everybody's eyes on me
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
I can't sleep, I can't sleep

Bishop Briggs - "Wild Horses" You hold me down in the best way
No quarter from these chains that I've
Slapped on my heart for a feeling
Why can't I let my demons lie?
Keep screaming into the pillow
Cause your touch still gets me...
Santigold - "Chasing Shadows" 360, 5 left, I'm counting it to the day
I'm thinking if I did everything I said, or if the year got the best of me
One thing about time, it waits for nobody, you told me, isn't that what they say...
Cold War Kids - "First" Cheated and lied, broken so bad
You made a vow, never get mad
You play the game, though it's unfair
They're all the same, who can compare?
First you lose trust, then you get worried
Night after...
Sylvan Esso - "Coffee" True, it's a dance, we know the moves
The bow, the dip, the woo
Though the words are true
The state is old news
Wrap me in your arms
I can't feel it but
Rock me in your arms
I can't feel it but
Get...

We lost it to trying
