I Can’t Sleep Songtext
von Tom MacDonald

I been running outta different ways to pass time
The devil′s work is done by idle hands, and I've been bored since last night
Jump into the whip and start to drive like it′s my last ride
Looking for a bridge where I can crash, see if I can fly, uh
Hit my head against the wall till I got black eyes
Sitting on the sofa, drinking soda, watching plants die
It's stupid, but I'm scared that I might lose it, and I can′t cry
The devil smells the tears, and he been chilling here, don′t ask why
The garbage can be full and hella pizza boxes stacked high
Hit the Ativan and now I'm anxious out my damn mind
Got 80 grand in clothing and a couple chains and a rad life
But all I′m really after is happiness money can't buy
I′m stressing every second to drop a record my fans like
Puking from the pressure, I'm throwing up like some gang signs
And standind on the mountain that an average man can′t climb
Waiting for an avalanche to landslide


I can't sleep, I'm outta my head
I′m losing my mind and no one understands, whoa
And I can′t breathe, I'm over the edge
I′m dying inside, I'm afraid how this might end, whoa

And I′m running outta ways to fight the bad thoughts, I can't stop
Cigarettes are filling up the empty cans and plant pots
I try to keep my demons locked away with chains and padlocks
They found a way to break out of the cage, and they won′t back off
Every day I call my parents, me, my mom and dad talk
I tell 'em that I'm fine, but it all changes when I hang up
There′s whiskey in the cupboard I′ve been tryna keep my hands off
It's calling to me every day like, "Come on, Tom, let′s have shots"
Mansion's in my head, I hop the fence into the backyard
Looking through the windows at all the rooms that my past haunts
I′m filling up my laptop with last words and chat logs
There's ashes on my mattress ′cause I smoke until I crash hard
Think I lost my mind, I'm tryna find it in these sad songs
Following my footprints, but the tracks stopped
Fighting with the devil, but he didn't think I′d last long
But I ain′t backing down, I'mma stand strong


I can′t sleep, I'm outta my head
I′m losing my mind and no one understands, whoa
And I can't breathe, I′m over the edge
I'm dying inside, I'm afraid how this might end, whoa

My mind is racing, I′m going crazy
I wanna hide in my bed
I think that maybe something can save me
But I don′t know what that thing is

I can't sleep, I′m outta my head
I'm losing my mind and no one understands, whoa
And I can′t breathe, I'm over the edge
I′m dying inside, I'm afraid how this might end, whoa
