Sleep Tonight.
Midnight Revelations: Izzy Gazelle's Unveiling Chaos in 'Sleep Tonight'
Lyrics
The grounds are a shakin’
The situation is intense or alarming.
The levees are a breakin’
The protective barriers are breaking down, indicating vulnerability or crisis.
Takers make way
Those who take or seize opportunities are making way.
Wailers make way
Those who express grief or sorrow are also making way.
You know how the tide goes
Understanding the cyclical nature of events, especially difficult times.
Give them the load and the woes
Provide them with burdens and troubles.
If you want it, take it all
Encouraging taking everything, even at the cost of stability or order.
I don’t care if the kingdom fall
Indifference towards the potential collapse of a kingdom or established system.
I don’t wanna sleep tonight
Expressing a desire to stay awake, possibly due to discomfort or unrest.
Nothing really feels right
Feeling that nothing is going well or feels right in the current circumstances.
I don’t wanna sleep tonight
Reiteration of the desire to stay awake due to discomfort or unrest.
Nothing really feels right
Reiteration of the feeling that nothing is going well or feels right.
The grounds are a shakin’
Repetition of the earlier statement about the intensity of the situation.
The levees are a breakin’
Repetition of the indication of vulnerability or crisis.
The choir can’t wait
The choir, possibly representing a collective, cannot wait for something.
The fire won’t wait
The fire, symbolizing urgency or intensity, won't wait.
Feel the thunder in the herd
Sensing the power or force in a collective movement or action.
I give my hands and the word
Offering support or assistance, represented by hands and words.
And you’ve known this all along
A recognition of prior knowledge or awareness.
George, you hold on
A specific address to someone named George, urging them to hold on.
I can’t sleep tonight
Reiteration of the difficulty in sleeping, hinting at a challenging night.
Gonna be a hell of a night
Anticipation of a night filled with challenges or difficulties.
I can’t sleep tonight
Sense of urgency or importance regarding something that needs to be set right.
Something really gotta get right
Expressing a feeling that something urgently needs to be addressed or corrected.
