This entire song is to Trenton Cole Stout, who was one of Demi’s best friends that hung himself. She considers him her guardian angel.
[Verse 1]
I can't sleep tonight
Wide awake and so confused
Everything's in line, but I am bruised
I need a voice to echo
I need a light to take me home
I kinda need a hero
Is it you?
[Pre-Chorus]
I never see the forest for the trees
I could really use your melody
Baby, I'm a little blind
I think it's time for you to find me
[Chorus]
Can you be my nightingale?
Sing to me
I know you're there
You could be my sanity
Bring me peace
Sing me to sleep
Say you'll be my nightingale
[Verse 2]
Somebody speak to me, 'cause I'm feeling like hell
Need you to answer me
I'm overwhelmed
I need a voice to echo
I need a light to take me home
I need a star to follow
I don't know
[Pre-Chorus]
I never see the forest for the trees
I could really use your melody
Baby, I'm a little blind
I think it's time for you to find me
[Chorus]
Can you be my nightingale?
Sing to me
I know you're there
You could be my sanity
Bring me peace
Sing me to sleep
Say you'll be my nightingale
[Bridge]
I don't know what I'd do without you
Your words are like a whisper, come through
As long as you are with me here tonight
I'm good
[Chorus]
Can you be my nightingale?
Feel so close
I know you're there
Oh, nightingale
You sing to me
I know you're there
'Cause, baby, you're my sanity
You bring me peace
Sing me to sleep
Say you'll be my nightingale

Nightingale is definitely a personal song. It’s about one of my friends that actually passed away when I was 13. I feel like sometimes I literally know when he is in the room with me and I just have a really strong connection to him, I feel like he is my nightingale.
