This song was written after a car accident when I was having nightmares of head-on collisions for about two months. Multiple times a week I would wake up screaming because of the dreams I was having.
This is the third completed song that will be on my second album. I'm doing my best to put a song out every two weeks and when I have fifteen songs finished, I will put the second album on all music streaming platforms.
Lyrics:
Sleep deprived I can’t close my eyes can’t make it through the night alone
Yeah I’ve tried but I cannot fight the fear of the night alone
Laying in bed and I’m lost in my head
Got sweat on my neck and my thoughts are a wreck
I just wanna sleep so I’m counting then sheep
I got nightmares and they be pulling me deep
And now you understand why I always look haunted
The nighttime scares me and makes me exhausted
So when you ask me why I don’t have a smile
Just consider that I haven’t slept well in a while
Sleep deprived all the time and in my mind I fight to stay alive stay alive
I’m afraid of whats to come in my dreams
sleeps not as great you think it would be
At night I’m alone and the light seems far
And when I do sleep I end up in my car
cause when I get dreams that usually means
The horrors of wrecks come back to haunt me
The glare of the headlights that own my bad dream
Crash into my body and I wake with a scream
