Sleepless
Nocturnal Reflections: Unraveling the Enigma of 'Sleepless'
Lyrics
I could have sworn it was the ghost again
I had a strong belief that a ghost was present once again
But it was probably just the wind
It turned out to be most likely the sound of the wind
Or the cat outside the window
Or it could have been the cat outside the window attempting to enter
Tryin to get in
Trying to get inside the room
I slept the sleep of a fireman
I slept deeply, similar to how a fireman might
But I never left the room
Although I stayed in the same place
Afraid to really walk aweay
Feeling hesitant to truly leave and face something
Walk away I assume
I assume it's challenging to walk away
I could have sworn it was the rain that set in
I thought it was raining, but the environment is dry
But out here it's all dry
Despite my initial perception
Maybe angels danced on the roof last night
Suggesting that perhaps angels were on the roof last night
cause they were just passin' by
Merely passing by
This cup of coffee can not wake me up
A cup of coffee is ineffective in waking me up
But it kinda opens my eyes
However, it does help me become more aware
I'll spend the day with the truth, my friend
I'll spend the day confronting the truth
And what behind it lies
And understanding what lies behind it
I could have sworn I heard a voice last night
I believed I heard a voice, but I can't recall its message
Can't remember what it said
Uncertain about what was said
Maybe it was something about old debts
Possibly related to old debts that need to be settled
Due to be paid
Payments that are due
Then I surrender, turned the light back on
Eventually, I give in, turn the light on, and have a beer
Got up and had a beer
Choosing to take action
The rain I heard wasn't rain at all
The perceived rain was, in fact, the moon shedding a tear
It was just the moon that shed a tear
A metaphorical expression
This cup of coffee can not wake me up
Coffee remains ineffective in waking me up
But it kinda opens my eyes
Yet it does enhance my perception
I'll spend the day with the truth, my friend
My day will be spent facing and embracing the truth
And what behind it lies
Exploring what lies behind it
This cup of coffee can not wake me up
The coffee still doesn't wake me up
But it kinda opens my eyes
However, it continues to open my eyes
I'll spend the day with the truth, my friend
I'll dedicate the day to the truth
And what behind it lies
And the revelations that accompany it
