Lyrics
insomnia
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, it's five in the morning
And I'm pacing down Harrow Road
(Harrow Road, Harrow Road)
And melatonin don't help no matter the dose
(the dose, the dose)
And insomnia it won't let me go
Insomnia won't let me go
(Won't let me go!)
Why do I have to write about you? I don't know!
And why did I come to London? I don't know!
(I don't know! I don't know!)
Seven in the morning
And I'm pacing down Rainham Road
(Rainham Road, Rainham Road)
Yeah, everyone sleeping while I'm creeping, I'm in a deep hole
The pharmacy low, studio is closed
And insomnia won't let me go
(Won't let me go!)
Why do I have to write about you? I don't know!
And why did I come to London? I don't know!
Yeah, why do I have to write about you? I don't know!
I'm unprepared and I'm getting nowhere and everybody knows
That insomnia it won't let me go Insomnia won't let me go
(Won't let me go) go home!
(Won't let me go) go home!
