I don't think it is meant to be taken literally as insomnia but rather the literal insomnia is a metaphor for something much deeper darker and almost sinister. This song hit me like a ton of bricks the first time i heard it because I am having a hard time figuring out what to do with my life, etc. Depression and anxiety are everything he describes in this song; constant worry, ups and downs(like the sea), overwhelming thoughts of despair, wanting someone, anyone to help but knowing they will never trully understand and finally coming to the conclusion that this misery will have to suffice, it is part of you and will never leave
