Confessions of an Insomniac Lyrics by Lydia May

2024

[Verse]
When the waters soft
And the lakes are clear
I run away
I run away
I avoid reflections to avoid my face
I run away
I run away
I move too much in pictures, can't sit still
Photographs blur my face
It's a disappointment every family photo
Christmas cards look like a mistake
[Pre Chorus]
But I let it go, I let it go
And I struggle to sleep at night
I let it go, I let it go
And I struggle to sleep at night
[Chorus]
Why′s every dream I have about me saving the world
There's a film script up here that no one wants told
I break my own heart and I'm tired everyday
It′s a shit show up here
I′d rather stay awake
[Post Chorus]
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh
[Verse]
I pass by shop windows
And put myself to shame
I don't fit the description in my head
And I′ve only got myself to blame
It's a lonely life living for people
You've still lost
Life doesn't care for the price of love
It just takes and bills you the cost
[Pre Chorus]
But we let it go we let it go
And we struggle to sleep at night
Oh we let it go we let it go
And we struggle to sleep at night
[Chorus]
Why′s every dream I have about me saving the world
There's a film script up here that no one wants told
I break my own heart and I'm tired everyday
It′s a shit show up here
I′d rather stay awake
[Post Chorus]
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh
[Bridge]
Why's every dream I have about me saving the world (It's me, you didn't call me back which is fine because it is now-)
There′s a film script up here that no one wants told (4am but I was just wondering if you got my message)
I break my own heart and I'm tired everyday
It′s a shit show up here I'd-
Ugh
[Chorus]
Why′s every dream I have about me saving the world (oh oh oh oh oh)
There's a film script up here that no one wants told (oh oh oh oh oh)
I break my own heart and I'm tired everyday (oh oh oh oh oh)
It′s a shit show up here I′d rather stay (oh oh)
[Outro]
Why's every dream I have about me saving the world (oh oh oh oh oh)
(stay awake just keep me up, stay awake just keep me up)
There′s a film script up here that no one wants told (oh oh oh oh oh)
(stay awake just keep me up, stay awake just keep me up)
I break my own heart and I'm tired everyday (oh oh oh oh oh)
(stay awake just keep me up, stay awake just keep me up)
It′s a shit show up here I'd rather stay awake (oh oh)
