Lyrics
It's late tonight
Feeling a sense of lateness or urgency.
There's monsters in line to get in my room
Feeling a sense of threat or intrusion in personal space.
I'm getting tired of always wanting you
Expressing fatigue with the persistent desire for someone.
I know the fear and it's in my chest
Acknowledging fear, with its physical manifestation in the chest.
It's that I'm stuck with my personal best
Feeling stuck with one's personal best, possibly a reference to a high standard or achievement.
I'm getting tired of being in my shoes
Expressing weariness of being in one's own situation.
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Reiterating the difficulty in sleeping, a recurring theme.
Next to you, I won't sleep
Unable to sleep when close to the person addressed.
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Continuing the struggle to sleep, emphasizing the impact of proximity to the mentioned person.
Wanna be you for a week
Expressing a desire to experience life from the perspective of the addressed person for a limited time.
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Repeating the difficulty in sleeping, reinforcing the ongoing challenge.
Can't let go what I'm seeing
Highlighting the difficulty in letting go of what is witnessed or experienced.
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Reiterating the struggle to sleep, specifically tied to what is being dreamt or envisioned.
Can't let go what I'm dreaming
Emphasizing the challenge of releasing or forgetting dream-related experiences.
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Recalling the ongoing difficulty in finding rest.
Next to you, next to you
Highlighting the impact of proximity to a specific person on the ability to sleep.
There's a loss of light
Describing a sense of darkness or negativity.
I lay here silent while you dream
Depicting a passive state while the person addressed is dreaming.
Of all the things you never saw in me
Expressing a sense of disappointment regarding things the person dreaming didn't notice.
Can't remember what it was you said
Unable to recall something said, hinting at confusion or uncertainty.
Starting to think it was all in my head
Suspecting that what was said might have been a product of one's imagination.
I know that things are never what they seem
Acknowledging the deceptive nature of appearances.
