Still can’t sleep is a single from Ely Waves, ChrispyD, and UK pop act Tom Shawcraft. Created in late 2020, the trio blends lo-fi, pop, and hip hop sounds to make a laid-back banger. Ely’s verse on the song touches on constantly overthinking and the need for medication when unable to sleep from inte...
[Chorus: Tom Shawcroft]
Chime in, what has happened to me?
I’m a fraud and I fall, and I say the shit that I never mean
Bad things always happen to me
But it’s all my fault and I still can’t sleep
[Verse 1: Ely Waves]
I can’t sleep, it’s an everyday thing
An everyday me, up late debating
What I’m doing with my life
Why can’t I find a wife
Seeing dark in every light
I question everything in sight
Can’t take my own advice
Am I wrong, am I right
I keep rolling out the dice
My peace of mind is the price
By holding onto vices
I can never get a grip
And every time I get close, I slip
[Chorus: Tom Shawcroft]
Chime in, what has happеned to me?
I’m a fraud and I fall, and I say the shit that I nеver mean
Bad things always happen to me
But it’s all my fault and I still can’t sleep
[Post-Chorus: Tom Shawcroft]
Should have known better than to call you on the telephone
Would have done better when I tried to find where I belong
Could have done better but I gave the dice a second roll
Can't count sheep 'cause I'm counting my regrets
(Verse 2: ChrispyD)
Can't sleep I been up for four days
Five weeks, six months, I don't know it's all the same
All the days blend together when did the seasons start to change
I'll say this type of shit and then my friends say I'm deranged
Don't they understand I'm anxious and antsy
On edge and tired, depressed as a man can be
The only thing that calms me down is kush or xannies
Somewhat ironic my worst nightmare is I can't sleep
[Chorus: Tom Shawcroft]
Chime in, what has happened to me?
I’m a fraud and I fall, and I say the shit that I never mean
Bad things always happen to me
But it’s all my fault and I still can’t sleep
[Post-Chorus: Tom Shawcroft]
Should have known better than to call you on the telephone
Would have done better when I tried to find where I belong
Could have done better but I gave the dice a second roll
Can't count sheep 'cause I'm counting my regrets
Should have known better than to call you on the telephone
Would have done better when I tried to find where I belong
Could have done better but I gave the dice a second roll
Can't count sheep 'cause I'm counting my regrets
[Outro: Tom Shawcroft]
Still can't sleep
Cause I'm counting my regrets
Still can't sleep
Cause I'm counting my regrets
Still can't sleep
