Tisdale wrote Insomnia during a time when she was suffering from the disorder.
Through the process of making this song, she learned how to not give power to anxiety, depression, and chronic illness.
[Verse 1]
I been dreamin' wide awake
Every night and day about you, baby
I can't get you out my head
Want you in my bed real soon, baby
[Pre-Chorus]
All of the demons, how do you keep 'em out?
All of the feelings, runnin' me 'round and 'round
I been dreamin' wide awake
Every night and day 'bout you
[Chorus]
I got insomnia
I'm lyin' here just wantin' ya
I got insomnia
Wish I had the kind
When you're on my body, not just on my mind
Insomnia (Insomnia)
I'm lyin' here just wantin' ya
Insomnia (Insomnia)
When I'm not holdin' onto ya
[Verse 2]
If you could hold me in your arms
Feel the way my heart beats fast, baby
You would take me out the dark
Shine a hundred stars on us, baby
[Pre-Chorus]
All of the demons, how do you keep 'em out?
All of the feelings, runnin' me 'round and 'round
If you could hold me in your arms
Feel the way my heart beats fast
[Chorus]
I got insomnia
I'm lyin' here just wantin' ya
I got insomnia
Wish I had the kind
When you're on my body, not just on my mind
Insomnia (Insomnia)
I'm lyin' here just wantin' ya
Insomnia (Insomnia)
When I'm not holdin' onto ya
[Bridge]
All these messages we send
Can't pretend that it's enough, oh
No, I need to feel your hands
All your body, want the love, oh
[Chorus]
I got insomnia
I'm lyin' here just wantin' ya
I got insomnia
Wish I had the kind
When you're on my body, not just on my mind
Insomnia (Insomnia)
I'm lyin' here just wantin' ya
Insomnia (Insomnia)
When I'm not holdin' onto ya
