Sleep Like a Baby
Nightly Struggles: Sleepless Secrets and Silent Battles
Lyrics
I wish I could act like, uh
I wish I could pretend that everything is okay
Everything is fine
Expressing a desire for a facade of normalcy
But forgiveness
Acknowledging the need for forgiveness
Is gonna to take me some time
Recognizing that forgiveness will require time
Pillows soaked every night
Describing tears and emotional distress
This bed is a sinking boat
Metaphorically comparing the bed to a sinking boat
How can I keep it afloat
Questioning how to salvage the relationship
Should I wake you up and let you know
Contemplating whether to wake the partner and reveal inner struggles
I'm breaking every night while you sleep like a baby oh
Expressing emotional pain while partner sleeps peacefully
While you sleep like a baby oh
Reiteration of partner's peaceful sleep in contrast to inner turmoil
I'm angry inside so many nights
Admitting to concealed anger during nights
As I lay by your side and you sleep like a baby
Describing emotional struggle while being close to the partner
While you sleep like a baby yeah
Reiterating partner's oblivious peaceful sleep
Let me calm down
Expressing a need to calm down and find peace
And try to close my eyes
Attempting to close eyes, possibly to find solace
I can't believe you
Expressing disbelief at a breach of trust
You shared what's mine
Indicating a sense of betrayal and sharing of personal matters
Laying underneath you uh
Describing a vulnerable position beneath the partner
I know she slept good
Speculating on another person's satisfaction in a similar situation
Can't get no shut eye, maybe I should try counting your lies
Suggesting difficulty in sleeping, considering counting lies
Should I wake you up and let you know
Revisiting the dilemma of waking the partner to share emotional pain
I'm breaking every night while you sleep like a baby oh
Reiteration of nightly emotional struggle while partner sleeps peacefully
While you sleep like a baby oh
Restating partner's undisturbed sleep in contrast to inner turmoil
I'm angry inside so many nights
Repeating the presence of concealed anger during nights
As I lay by your side and you sleep like a baby, yeah
Describing emotional turmoil while being close to the partner
And you sleep like a baby oh
Reiterating partner's oblivious peaceful sleep
You should be in this bed alone, uh huh
Expressing the belief that the partner should face consequences alone
You should be in this bed alone
Reiterating the idea that the partner should be alone in bed
Should I wake you up and let you know
Revisiting the dilemma of waking the partner to share emotional pain
I'm breaking every night while you sleep like a baby oh
Reiteration of nightly emotional struggle while partner sleeps peacefully
While you sleep like a baby (while you sleep like a baby)
Restating partner's undisturbed sleep in contrast to inner turmoil
I'm angry inside so many nights as I lay by your side while you sleep like a baby
Repeating the presence of concealed anger during nights
While you sleep like a baby yeah
Describing emotional turmoil while being close to the partner
Should I wake you up and let you know
Revisiting the dilemma of waking the partner to share emotional pain
I'm breaking every night while you sleep like a baby oh
Reiteration of nightly emotional struggle while partner sleeps peacefully
While you sleep like a baby (like a baby)
Restating partner's undisturbed sleep in contrast to inner turmoil
I'm angry inside so many nights
Repeating the presence of concealed anger during nights
As I lay by your side while you sleep like a baby (sleep like a baby)
Describing emotional turmoil while being close to the partner
While you sleep like a baby yeah (sleep like a baby)
Reiterating partner's oblivious peaceful sleep
