sleepless
Stimmen: NOX · ~68 BPM half-time
Drei Uhr nachts, leere Wohnung, kein GRIM — er wirkt stärker, wenn er hier gerade nicht kommt. Die Decke als Leinwand, das blaue Licht eines toten Handys, kalter Kaffee. Er kämpft nicht mehr, er ist nur wach.
Songtext
Intro
3:11 and i'm still wide awake soon as it goes quiet, he starts up in my head so i grind it up, twist it, spark the flame one long pull just to put him back to sleep
Intro — GRIM
i'm still here… i don't leave…
Verse 1
days unwashed, same clothes stuck to my skin sweat-soaked sheets i ain't changed in weeks he leans in close, says i did this to myself so i hit it again till the words go soft ashtray spilling ends, burn holes down my shirt i smoke him down till the whole room goes blue 3:11 to 3:40, and he's quiet for now
Verse 1 — GRIM
you ruin everything you touch…
Chorus
can't sleep, this fucking night don't ever end he plants the thoughts, i smoke 'em out my head i kill him slow, one pull until he's gone but the calm's on credit, and he's back by dawn
Verse 2
4:30, and the smoke don't hit the same food gone bad on a plate i'll never wash greasy, sick, i can't stand my own smell he says she left 'cause of me — and he's right caught my face in the black screen, didn't know him i don't fight to win no more, i fight to reach morning just keep smoking till my eyes give out
Verse 2 — GRIM
you'll smile and lie, they'll never know…
Outro
5:40, the high's gone, and he's still here same four walls, same voice, same fucking night ashtray full of every time i killed him and he came back… he always comes back
Outro — GRIM
same time tomorrow…
