Learning to Sleep Again | Emotional Dark Nu Metal

A dark emotional nu metal song about finally learning to sleep after someone is gone. VEXSIL - Learning to Sleep Again is a wounded, atmospheric metal song about the nights when you still reach for someone who is no longer there, and the strange moment when you realize the pain is starting to hurt a little less. Some nights you still reach for them. Some nights you finally rest instead. Built around intimate male vocals, clean down-tuned guitars, distorted bass, dark atmosphere and a slow emotional rise into a heavy final chorus. For listeners drawn to the vulnerable side of dark alternative metal and emotional heavy music, including the audience lanes around Sleep Token, Bad Omens, Linkin Park and Bring Me The Horizon. These are audience-positioning references, not sound-alike claims. VEXSIL is a dark emotional nu metal artist built around heartbreak, betrayal, memory, toxic love and the emotional aftermath that refuses to disappear. The Afterroom remembers everything.

LYRICS Some nights I still reach for you Some nights I rest instead I’m learning to sleep again Without your ghost beside the bed Some nights I still reach for you Some nights I rest instead I’m learning to close my eyes Without reliving how you left I still hear you in the silence But it hurts a little less I used to leave my phone awake Face up beside me in the dark Like one more word from you Could put me back where we still are I counted every passing car Every shadow on the wall Anything to keep me from Dreaming you would call Because sleep felt like losing you One more time And I was scared the morning Would make goodbye real I’m learning to sleep again Without your ghost beside the bed Some nights I still reach for you Some nights I rest instead I’m learning to close my eyes Without reliving how you left I still hear you in the silence But it hurts a little less A little less A little less I turned the screen face down tonight I let the room go black Your side was empty And for once I did not ask you back I do not know if this is healing I only know I stayed Long enough to see the morning Without saying your name I’m learning to sleep again Without your ghost beside the bed Some nights I still reach for you Some nights I rest instead I’m learning to close my eyes And trust the dark inside my chest I made it through another night And it hurt a little less Some nights I still reach for you Tonight I rested instead Subscribe for the next VEXSIL release. #ToxicLove #DarkMetal #metalcore #EmotionalMetal #SleepToken #BadOmens
