Sea of Sheets - Sad Melodic Rap (Official Lyrics Video)

"Sea of Sheets" - a sad melodic rap song about insomnia, the voices that won't stay quiet, and the long fight to finally fall asleep. From the empty silence of 3 a.m. to the soft, slowed final chorus, the song follows one person drowning in the dark, jolted awake by electric shocks every time sleep comes close, haunted by a crowd of voices in his head, until the night finally lets him go. Lyrics [Intro] Three a.m.... Wide awake... The night is long... (long) And my eyes won't break... (break) [Verse 1] The clock is a drum in the hollow of my chest (chest) Ticking like a hammer that never gets to rest (rest) My pillow is a stone, my blanket is a chain (chain) My body is a prison and the warden is the pain (pain) I drift to the edge where the dreaming should begin (begin) Then lightning in my nerves jolts me back into my skin (skin) A current in my spine every time I start to fall (fall) Like the night has a fence and it's electric after all (all) [Pre-Chorus] Close your eyes... (eyes) Close your eyes... (eyes) But the voices start to rise... (rise) And they whisper all their lies... (lies) [Chorus] Sleep, where did you go? You left me alone in the undertow Sleep, I'm begging you, please Bring me some silence, bring me some peace Sleep, come lay me down Before the morning drags me to the ground I'm drowning in a sea that's made of sheets Waiting for a dream that never meets me [Verse 2] There's a crowd in my head and they never take a seat (seat) A choir made of strangers singing static on repeat (repeat) One says I'm a failure, one says I'm to blame (blame) One knows every secret and keeps calling out my name (name) Another shock of thunder as I'm slipping into black (black) A thousand tiny needles every time they pull me back (back) I'm bleeding without wounds, I'm screaming without sound (sound) I'm buried in my bed but I'm never underground (ground) The window turns gray like a wound that won't heal (heal) The birds start to sing and I've forgotten how to feel (feel) Another day rising on a body made of lead (lead) Another night buried in the coffin of my head (head) [Pre-Chorus] Close your eyes... (eyes) Close your eyes... (eyes) But the voices start to rise... (rise) And they whisper all their lies... (lies) [Chorus] Sleep, where did you go? You left me alone in the undertow Sleep, I'm begging you, please Bring me some silence, bring me some peace Sleep, come lay me down Before the morning drags me to the ground I'm drowning in a sea that's made of sheets Waiting for a dream that never meets me [Bridge] Breathe in... (slow) Breathe out... (low) Let the voices... (go) Let the silence... (grow) [Final Chorus] Sleep, there you are... Falling like a feather from a faraway star... No more thunder in my veins... No more voices, no more pain... Sleep, hold me tight... Carry me gently through the end of the night... [Outro] Goodnight... (night) Goodnight... (night) If this song speaks to you: you are not alone. Sleepless nights and voices that won't go quiet are worth talking about with a doctor or someone you trust.
