Sleep Escape lyrics

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
Wake up, It's already 1 o'clock
Nh, I gotta get up, but I don't feel like it
I didn't sleep enough; was up to 7am again
Insomnia is really just a piece of sh*t
But I don't really care, when I feel my life's up in the air
I don't want to wake up and face reality
To see that I'm not half the person I used to be
To see all my color just draining right outta me

[Chorus]
When I close my eyes, the world seems so interesting again
Black and purple fade into cozy places when that rem takes me
I know it's not healthy, but I feel better when I'm gone for a bit
The sleep escapе; It takes my pain away

[Bridge]
Sleep escape, bеcause I hated how today went
Sleep escape, because I feel no more shame
Sleep escape, my little hideaway
Sleep escape, my safe space

[Verse 2]
That is, until the nightmare comes uninvited
All my worst fears come flooding in, I'm sweating in my sheets
Sometimes there's no escape in my sleep, no escape waking up
I feel like I'm going mad; time to pop another xanz
Don't worry, have them legally; it's 'cause of this anxiety
"I wish I could function normally," I'm screaming silently
Just sick of being awake at times and facing this society
But I know for damn sure that I still want to live
[Chorus]
When I close my eyes, the world seems so interesting again
Black and purple fade into cozy places when that rem takes me
I know it's not healthy, but I feel better when I'm gone for a bit
The sleep escape: it takes my pain away

[Outro]
M.I.A... I'm missing in action
