Insomnia

Lyrics

[Intro] Argh! [Verse 1] I feel like a zombie, slumber's beyond me Nights get longer, long as Luke Longley Smallest sounds like a Kombi van Backfiring, was a comedy camera hiding up in this Nightmare, nah, wish it was a nightmare (Yeah) Then at least I'd be asleep in my bed My eyes bright red, feel like death by bed Weighed down, 'cause my head's like lead Like Ned Kelly, belly up, nothin' stop me gettin' up From weed paraphernalia or takin' valium I tried it, every herbal remedy, diet Readin' and writin', nothin' makes me tired My mind racin', sleep deprivation The only one awake playin' the waiting game Facin' the sun in an hour Everyone seems to be sound asleep [Chorus] Insomnia, I can't eat Feelin' the heat, can't sleep, sleep Insomnia, it's just me And the sounds of police on the street, street Insomnia, I can't eat Feelin' the heat, can't sleep, sleep Insomnia, no retreat 'Cause I never thought it'd happen to me, me [Verse 2] Feel like I'm in a parallel, paranoid paradise Every word on repeat like a parrot's life Every beat in my head starts to paralyse Fahrenheit risin', feedin' the parasites Like a satellite, analyse the world 'Cause I'm up again, antagonised by every gust of wind Must have been a comatose in my last life Now I lie awake like puffin' on a glass pipe Can't hide, I tried to count sheep Count three-thousand-and-thirty-three, man, please I need my Zs, I'm tossin' and turnin' Determined to kill Tyler Durden and beat the Insomnia Insomnia [Interlude: Olivia Newton-John] "Strands of light on our bedroom floor— Strands of light on our bedroom floor" [Verse 3] I'm locked on nocturnal Can't watch the clock or stop the time turning Nothing that the doctor concocts is working Only the warlock can drop the curse on this earthling The worst thing, I work in three hours Can only scream like a werewolf howlin' Overpowered by moonlight, soon light My crew like, "Yeah, sucks to be you, right?" Too right, yeah, sucks to be me, friend It's monotony like tryna find the seas end Deep breathin', I plead for a little sleep Past fatigue, now I questionin' my beliefs, I can't believe it Can't remember the last eight hour sleep I had All this anxiety is bad My brain won't stop Find you're losin' track in the days when you got [Chorus] Insomnia, I can't eat Feelin' the heat, can't sleep, sleep Insomnia, it's just me And the sounds of police on the street, street Insomnia, I can't eat Feelin' the heat, can't sleep, sleep Insomnia, no retreat 'Cause I never thought it'd happen to me, me
