Sleep

Lyrics

'Sleep' By Seth Chaney...

[INTRO — Whispered Female Vocals, Vinyl Crackle, Slow Trip Hop Beat]

I can hear you in the silence.

I can feel you through the rain.

Every shadow has a secret and every smile conceals a pain.

Soft Female Vocals

Come a little closer.
Let me look inside ya mind.
Let me see the darkness you hide inside, don't worry I won't deny you'll still be mine.

Deep Male Vocals — Seth Style

I'm a ghost inside a body with a mind I can't escape.

Got a thousand demons trying to suffocate my faith.

Every mirror is a photograph that somebody has defaced.

Every memory shows a stranger with a smile I can't replace.

I'm addicted ta'da atmosphere of melancholy slowly driftin through'a dream dat's turnin me inta somebody ghastly I'm gasping as vast velvet shadows follow me quietly fingertips steadily dripping red glistening half inside'a nightmare dats gradually increasing dramatically livin somewhere inbetween da misery I can't wake just searchin for'a eternity of serenity wit uncertainty quickly fixating on escaping reality instead I start singing.

[TRIP HOP DROP — Deep Bass, Dusty Breakbeat, Haunting Samples]

Don't wake me up...

Just let my pain fade.

I don't wanna face another day awake.

I've been livin in the twilight, lost, confused with a soul I barely knew..

Don't wake me up... Just let me fade..

*Please just let me escape into this sound, where silence never screams, shadows don't pull me down.*

VERSE 2 — Fast, Smooth Male Rap

Paranoia in'a panorama iz'dat even plausible or totally impossible I'm too incompetent inconsiderate inconsistent infections wit bad intentions a bad influence da redivivus ridiculous thoughts inside my head intolerable yet sensational understandable faulsy accusing folks, I'm'a walkin diorama of da things I never speak, I'm miserable irrational illogical but my lyrics are insatiable irresistibly intoxicatin a'miracle on every beat I sing are'ya listenin ta da silent screamin comin from demons within me.

got'a P.O.V of cinematic sickness every scene's'a different shade colored in whatever way I say, got psychological paralysis in'a life dat feels so plain, my death day has been delayed so I keep driftin through dimensions of'a disconnected mind tryna sever all attachments but our thoughts intertwine, now I don't know what was meant to be yours or what was meant to be mine, what line is your rhyme and at what time, start after my next verse it should be fine.

Your'a beautiful catastrophe, I'm'a broken masterpiece, we both have'a heart full of cacophony, silently screamin tagetha in'a desperate need for peace..

[HAUNTING FEMALE CHORUS — Breathless, Smoky, Intimate]

Hold me closely. Let me disappear into your reality.

I can hear you whisperin in my ear.

Love me slowly.
Know me fully. I'm your secret.
I'm your reason.

Why the shadows watch you while your sleeping.

[INSTRUMENTAL — Vinyl Scratches, Muted Guitar, Deep Sub-Bass, Glitching Vocals]

*Fadin... fadin... fadin away...* (Fadin Away)

*No one... no one... hears when I pray...*
(No one hears) WHEN I PRAY!

*Break me... remake me... erase me... replace me...* Take me away!

VERSE 3 — Dark, Intimate

I don't need another sermon.

I need silence in my skull.
All these years of bein nervous left my relinquished spirit dull.

Trip Pop Trap Rap Male

I got oceans unda'neath and'I neva learned ta swim, time after time I get lost inside myself ta happily drown again.

I write anotha verse let da bassline take da blame turn my agony ta art put my misery in'a frame ta be displayed for your disgraceful misplaced shameful face.

If ya listen past da rhythm, past da reverb, past da pain, you'll discover I'm still human, just trapped underneath dis darkened brain.

[FINAL CHORUS — Male and Female Vocals Layered]

Don't wake me up..*Don't Wake Me Up!*

I'm somewhere between.
A nightmare and a daydream..
(A nightmare and a daydream)

Don't wake me up, just let the music play.
(Don't wake me up, just let the music *play*)

I'm trying to find a reason to survive another day instead of wanting to fade.

[OUTRO — Beat Fades Into Rain, Vinyl Crackle, Distant Female Whisper]

Velvet shadows under my skin.
Let the quiet pull me in..
If you find me in the deep.

Then sing along until we both reach inner peace.

now sleep...

Just sleep...

*Play this on repeat to sleep with me*
