Light Sleeper Lyrics
Sleep sleep, little darling
I swear I'm not trying to wear you out
I'm not trying to drag you down
When you fall asleep tonight
They'll be waiting for you
When you try and close your eyes
They'll try not to hate you
Sleep sleep, the night away
Act like nothing's wrong
You know we're going down
You are such a light sleeper
Count to ten and you're already up
We fall, we're in deeper
The night's gone as we open up our eyes
Nine ten, we'll never sleep again
We try, we know we'll never win
At least we know we'll make it out alive
At least we know we'll make it out this time
You are such a light sleeper
Count to ten and you're already up
We fall, we're in deeper
The night's gone as we open up our eyes
We fall (WE FALL)
We know that we can make it now
We fall (WE FALL)
We know that we can break this down
(We can break this down)
We hear what you're saying
Not enough so we keep playing
This game is what you make it
One chance so why not take it
You are such a light sleeper
Count to ten and you're already up
We fall, we're in deeper
The night's gone as we open up our eyes
Such a light sleeper
Light sleeper
Such a light sleeper
Sleep sleep, little darling
I swear I'm not trying to wear you out
I'm not trying to drag you down
I swear I'm not trying to wear you out
I'm not trying to drag you down
They'll be waiting for you
When you try and close your eyes
They'll try not to hate you
Sleep sleep, the night away
Act like nothing's wrong
You know we're going down
Count to ten and you're already up
We fall, we're in deeper
The night's gone as we open up our eyes
We try, we know we'll never win
At least we know we'll make it out alive
At least we know we'll make it out this time
Count to ten and you're already up
We fall, we're in deeper
The night's gone as we open up our eyes
We know that we can make it now
We fall (WE FALL)
We know that we can break this down
(We can break this down)
Not enough so we keep playing
This game is what you make it
One chance so why not take it
Count to ten and you're already up
We fall, we're in deeper
The night's gone as we open up our eyes
Light sleeper
Such a light sleeper
I swear I'm not trying to wear you out
I'm not trying to drag you down

I love the way this chorus comes in, after the verses, and the repition of the intro. It's one of my favorites by far on the album, which, might I add, is excellent. I read in a review about the album that the reviewer said that JT is the only man in the universe who couldn't use any sexual energy at all in the intro, but I think it's better like that. It seems a lot more intimate. What the fuck, not everything has to be sex-oriented. Way to go JT!
ehh im not sure if this song just hasnt grown on me yet or if i truly dont like this as much as their old stuff. i think its about him and someone else having problem and he wanting the other person to ignore it and try to make it through--but ya im not really sure at all on this one
i agree, i like the old ones better but this is still ok. its a little upsetting that so many people are liking these old unknown bands. i feel kind of protective haha. but this song is still ok
I really like this song..but i see that no one else does....
at first i thought it was alil poppy but its really growning on me now.
Hawthorne Heights never fail to amaze me ... their old stuff was great but i think that their new stuff is even better! This song is definately one of their greatest up to date.
i dont know if anyone has notcied this but. .
"Nine ten, we'll never sleep again"
i think that comes from the poem about freddy..
1 2 freddys coming for you 3 4 better lock your door 5 6 grab a crucifix 7 8 stay up late 9 10 never sleep again
im with "bobese" on this one i love thier new stuff! and i really love this song!!!
I think this song is actually about people that bash the band online all the time, and how they can keep doing it, it's not going to stop Hawthorne Heights from making music.
We hear what you're saying Not enough so we keep playing This game is what you make it One chance so why not take it
You are such a light sleeper Count to ten and you're already up We fall, we're in deeper The night's gone as we open up our eyes
To me, that's them saying, yeah we get it you guys hate us, but it's our lives and it doesnt matter we're going to do what we're going to do and so are you, and also because the scene kids change their minds more than their eyeliner.
i have to say out of like all the album all the songs av got alil old n ova played but no 1 relised this song was the best. out of all the songs ppl only listened to the well known ones. this song, the 1s verse is amazing and i love it! it makes me fall alsp, i put it on repeat, it makes me slp love it!
