[HOOK] I don't sleep, I just sink slow Moonlight leaking through the window Mind keep running where my feet don't Night got teeth and it bite deep though I don't sleep, I just sink slow Clock keep talking in the same tone Dark room feeling like a payphone Only ring when I'm alone [VERSE 1] I been staring at the ceiling like it owe me something Fan blades spinning like my thoughts tryna show me something And the pillow feel like concrete when the guilt come jumping Eyes wide open but my soul been malfunctioning I got sheep in a line but they jumping off bridges I got dreams in a cage and they screaming for visits I got time on my chest like a weight at the fitness And the night keep counting all my scars like digits Every shadow in the corner got a mouth now Every little sound turn loud when the house down I been tryna shut my brain but it found routes Like a rat in the wall tryna claw out And I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna explain I don't wanna hear nobody say it's just in my brain Cuz my brain is a prison with the lights on And my bed feel colder when the night long [HOOK] I don't sleep, I just sink slow Moonlight leaking through the window Mind keep running where my feet don't Night got teeth and it bite deep though I don't sleep, I just sink slow Clock keep talking in the same tone Dark room feeling like a payphone Only ring when I'm alone [VERSE 2] I been wrestling the silence like it got hands Covers on me heavy like a body bag Phone face down but I still check twice Cuz the glow feel warm when the room got ice I got monsters in my head wearing old clothes They don't kick the door in, they tiptoe They just sit by the bed where the smoke go Tell me everything I lost like I don't know And the clock keep clicking like a loaded gun Every minute hit harder than the older one Sun coming up but I ain't over none I just fake being fine when the morning come Cuz the world don't care that I ain't rest right Bills still due, gotta work with a dead mind Smile on my face like a porch light But inside it's a storm with a short life I keep pouring my pain in the beat though Turn a dark room into a peephole Let the mic hear everything that people don't Cuz this music the only place I bleed slow [BRIDGE] Tell me why the night know my name Tell me why my peace don't stay Tell me why my thoughts got chains Tell me why I wake up drained I ain't asking for no sympathy I just need a little quiet in me I just need the dark to quit lying to me I just need my own mind to stop fighting me [OUTRO] I don't sleep, I survive till the light show Eyes red, heart cold, moving like a typo Mama might call and I say that I'm alright though Still here, still breathing, still writing with my eyes closed
