No Sheep
Insomniac Confessions: Battling Tigers in the Mind
Lyrics
Heavy on my eyes
Feeling a weight or burden on one's eyes.
Buried deep inside
Something deeply ingrained or hidden within.
That tiger pit created by my own brain
Referring to a mental trap or struggle created by one's own thoughts.
No matter what I do
Regardless of actions taken, facing persistent challenges.
It's nipping at my shoes
A metaphorical threat that constantly follows and troubles.
It's gonna catch up to me every time
The inevitable pursuit of difficulties in every endeavor.
I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep
Emphasizing the repeated inability to sleep, possibly due to inner struggles.
I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep
-Low supply, high demand
Highlighting a situation of scarcity and high demand.
Keeps coffee shops open
Coffee as a necessity to stay awake and its economic impact on coffee shops.
We can't go without but
The difficulty of abstaining from necessities despite the effort.
Dammit, we're gonna try
-An unconscious frozen state
Contrasting between an unconscious state and the potential for success in relationships.
Or a successful date
-And doing it with your boss
Suggesting societal judgments on relationships with authority figures.
Makes you a whore
-I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep
Reiterating the persistent struggle with sleep.
I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep
-Been awake for 30 hours, going on 31
Expressing an extended period of wakefulness, nearing 31 hours.
I'm feeling logic start to crumble
Experiencing a breakdown in logical thinking due to prolonged wakefulness.
My handwriting looks just like an earthquake hit this house
Describing the impact of sleep deprivation on handwriting, emphasizing chaos.
I'll be drooling on the keyboard when I wake up
An anticipation of a state where one might fall asleep involuntarily.
I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep
Repeatedly expressing the ongoing struggle with sleep.
I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep
-I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep, I don't sleep
Reaffirming the persistent difficulty in achieving restful sleep.
