Sleep in the Heat Songtext
von PUP

I was feeling a little bizarre
The day that I burned my family car
In the scrap metal wrecking yard
And I′ve said so many goodbyes
In the 25 years that I've been alive, and I
Don′t know why this one was so hard

And every time I'd go back to my apartment
All I'd wanna do is get stoned (whoa oh-oh oh-oh)
And I′m sick and tired of blacking out on my carpet
And waking up all on my own, so I brought you home!

You started falling apart
Six months after you moved in
And I should′ve known from the start
That things would be different
It's not something that I can fix
If I could do anything, you know I would
This fucking vacation would come to an end
Maybe then you′d be normal again


Last week, when I went back to my apartment
You were looking so stoned (whoa oh-oh oh-oh)
The day after Christmas, you acted so different
Just wanted to be on your own

So I thought you'd better sleep right through the day
And cast all of my savings and loans (whoa oh-oh oh-oh)
But it was too late
You were letting go

Whoa, whoa oh-oh oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa oh-oh oh-oh, oh oh
Oh, whoa oh-oh oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa oh-oh oh-oh, oh oh

Whoa, whoa oh-oh oh-oh
And nothing I say (whoa oh oh oh)
Will make it okay (whoa oh-oh oh-oh, oh oh)
You just sleep in the heat and repeat
You wasted away (oh, whoa oh-oh oh-oh)
And nothing I do is gonna save you (whoa oh oh oh)
I′m trying my best, but you can't even look at me and talk to me and tell me what′s happening to you (whoa oh-oh oh-oh, oh oh)


Yesterday, I went back to my apartment
To see how you'd been holding up (whoa oh-oh oh-oh)
You hadn't been eating, I thought you were sleeping, but
You′re not waking up

And I want you to know that I′d spend every bit of my
Pitiful savings and loans (whoa oh-oh oh-oh)
Just to see you again
But I know I won't!
