I Can’t Sleep Tom MacDonald

I Can’t Sleep - Tom MacDonald
[Verse 1]
I've been runnin' outta different ways to pass time
The devil's work is done by idle hands, and I've been bored since last night
Jump into the whip and start to drive like it's my last ride
Lookin' for a bridge where I can crash, see if I can fly, uh
Hit my head against the wall 'til I got black eyes
Sittin' on the sofa, drinking soda, watchin' plants die
It's stupid, but I'm scared that I might lose it and I can't cry
The devil smells the tears and he been chilling here, don't ask why
The garbage can been full and hella pizza boxes stacked high
Hit the Ativan and now I'm anxious out my damn mind
Got 80 grand in clothin', a couple chains, and a rad life
But all I'm really after is happiness money can't buy
I'm stressin' every second to drop a record my fans like
Pukin' from the pressure, I'm throwin' up like some gang signs
And standin' on the mountain that an average man can't climb
Waitin' for an avalanche or landslide

[Chorus]
I can't sleep, I'm out of my head
I'm losin' my mind and no one understands, whoa-oh
And I can't breathe, I'm over the edge
I'm dyin' inside, I'm afraid how this might end, whoa-oh

[Verse 2]
And I'm runnin' outta ways to fight the bad thoughts I can't stop
Cigarettes are fillin' up the empty cans and plant pots
I tried to keep my demons locked away with chains and padlocks
They found a way to break out of the cage and they won't back off
Every day I call my parents: me, my mom and dad talk
I tell 'em that I'm fine, but it all changes when I hang up
There's whiskey in the cupboard I've been tryna keep my hands off
It's callin' to me every day like, "Come on, Tom, let's have shots"
Mansion's in my head, I hop the fence into the backyard
Lookin' through the windows and all the rooms that my past taunts
Fillin' up my laptop with last words and chat logs
There's ashes on my mattress 'cause I smoke until I crash hard
Think I lost my mind, I'm tryna find it in these sad songs
Followin' my footprints, but the track stopped
Fightin' with the devil, but he didn't think I'd last long
But I ain't backin' down, I'ma stand strong
