LÉON’s “Sleep Deprived” is vividly illustrated as waking up from a bad dream. In this nightmare you’ll find less depictions of scary monsters from under the bed and more demons that haunt a broken heart. She paints a picture of this horror-house maze we run through during heartache triggered by even...
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I think of us, before it all got bad
It left me long ago, the kind of love we had
[Pre-Chorus]
Left me dry, running on empty vows
But you seemed fine when we met last night
Heard what you were saying, saying, saying
Wasn't your fault
[Chorus]
The way that it burns, glass under my nails
An itch, I can't scratch when I hear your name
My baby got me sleep deprived
So what you saying, what you saying now?
When it was we, I played like a child
But now that it's gone I'm fucked up inside
My baby got me sleep deprived
So what you saying, what you saying now?
[Verse 2]
Don't wanna hold a grudge, still it is hard sometimes
So if you settle down, I'm gonna burn your house
[Pre-Chorus]
Left me dry, running on empty vows
But you seemed fine and I just don't know how
Heard what you were saying, saying, saying
Wasn't your fault
[Chorus]
The way that it burns, glass under my nails
An itch, I can't scratch when I hear your name
My baby got me sleep deprived
So what you saying, what you saying now?
When it was we, I played like a child
But now that it's gone I'm fucked up inside
My baby got me sleep deprived
So what you saying, what you saying now?
[Bridge]
I wanna taste your lips, without the bittersweet
He's here now, I can't sleep
So what you saying, what you saying?
[Chorus]
The way that it burns, glass under my nails
An itch, I can't scratch when I hear your name
My baby got me sleep deprived
So what you saying, what you saying now?
When it was we, I played like a child
But now that it's gone I'm fucked up inside
My baby got me sleep deprived
So what you saying, what you saying now?
