Trouble Sleeping
The Perishers Lyrics
I'm having trouble sleeping
You're jumping in my bed
Twisting in my head
Leave me
I'm having touble breathing
You're sitting on my chest
I sure could use the rest
Leave me
It's you
Why's it always you and never me
Never dared to let my feelings free
Why's it always you and never me
Never cared too much for honesty
I'm having trouble sleeping
I'm thinking of what you said
Of all the tears being shed
Leave me
It's you
Why's it always you and never me
Never dared to let my feelings free
Why's it always you and never me
Never cared too much for honesty
It's you
Now and always you but never me
Never dared to let my feelings free
Why's it always you and never me
Never cared too much for honesty

I’m having trouble sleeping
不眠症な僕の
You’re jumping in my bed
ベットの上で君はジャンプして
Twisting in my head
頭の中をねじるんだ。
Leave me
そっとしておくれ。
I’m having trouble breathing
呼吸困難な僕の
You’re sitting on my chest
胸の上で君は座って
I sure could use the rest
確かに安息できたんだ。
Leave me
そっとしておくれ。
It’s you
君さ
Why’s it always you
何故いつも君なんだ
and never me?
何故僕じゃなく。
I’ve never dared to let
僕には勇気がなかった
my feelings free
心を解き放つ
Why’s it always you
何故いつも君なんだ
and never me?
何故僕じゃなく
I’ve never cared
構ってあげられない僕の
too much about honesty
あまりにも素直な気持ち。
I’m having trouble sleeping
不眠症な僕の
I’m thinking of what you said
君の言った事を考えて
About the tears been shed
流れた涙のわけも
Leave me
離れて行く
It’s you
それは君
Now and always you
ずっと君なんだ
but never me
決して僕じゃなく
I’ve never dared to
僕には勇気がなかった
let my feelings free
感情を解き放つ
Why’s it always you
何故いつも君なんだ
and never me?
何故僕じゃなく
I’ve never cared
構ってあげられなかった僕の
too much about honesty
あまりにも素直な気持ちさ。

It’s kinda a sad song but the tune and instrumentation is so upbeat. That’s why I love it, and it was on the OC
