[Verse 1]
I bet you didn't go to sleep tonight
'Cause I can see it in what's left of your eyes
It's not glamorous or sensual
It's not sex, it's just stress
And you can't manage on your own-io
It's less regression, more an elegant hole
That comes from lack of job security
And more tests, but no sex
I got your coffee in my cup
We could rest like a baby
Once we finished thinking everything that can be thought maybe
Find a Z-Z-Z at the foot of my bed and my world, I'm your girl
[Chorus]
Four hours sleep, I'm grateful
Three hours sleep, I'm skipping things
Two hours sleep, I'm a hateful bitch
One hour sleep, I'm the missing link
Between the living and the dead
Oh, living and the dеad, living and the dead
[Verse 2]
I can't remеmber when I last slept right
Which could be useful on a Saturday night
If I looked any way presentable
But I look wrecked, undead
So chicken, I know what you're going through
Post-office windows start to look like the Louvre
And your mind starts to disintegrate
It's no fun, you're undone
I got nothing but Diet Coke runnin' through my veins
And when it gets to 4am, I start to talk like baby
Going, "Wah wah wah, can I just go back to the womb?
Is there room?"
[Chorus]
Four hours sleep, I'm grateful
Three hours sleep, I'm skipping things
Two hours sleep, I'm a hateful bitch
One hour sleep, I'm the missing link
Between the living and the dead
Oh, living and the dead, living and the dead
[Post-Chorus]
Ah, living and the dead
Oh, living and the dead, living and the dead
[Bridge]
I got nothing but stupid people running through my head
And I would literally sell my soul for a bed
That does the only thing I've ever asked it to do
Ah
[Chorus]
Four hours sleep, I'm grateful
Three hours sleep, I'm skipping things
Two hours sleep, I'm a hateful bitch
One hour sleep, I'm the missing link
Oh, four hours sleep, I'm grateful
Three hours sleep, I'm skipping things
Two hours sleep, I'm a hateful
One hour sleep, I'm the missing link
Between the living and the dead
Oh, living and the dead, living and the dead
[Post-Chorus]
Ah, living and the dead
Oh, living and the dead, living and the dead

I wrote it during a particularly bad period for my sleeping pattern,” she explains. “It’s a song about not being able to fall asleep, and anxiety/stress-related insomnia, something I have suffered from for years. I think I developed it during years of low-paying, irregular shift work..

Before I launched myself really as an artist, I started renting a yoga studio because it was cheaper than renting a musical studio. I’d go in for four hours on a Wednesday after work and I’d write the song in the first two hours and then I’d record the song on video and then I’d post it on YouTube o...
