No One's Here To Sleep
Naughty Boy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everywhere I look, I fall
Climbing up the walls
I'm climbing up the walls
What goes on behind these doors
I'll keep mine and you'll keep yours
We all have our secrets
We all have our secrets
Behind every door
Is a fall, a fall and
No one's here to sleep
You were always faster than me
I'll never catch up with you, with you
Oh I can feel them coming for me
And you were always faster than me
I'll never catch up with you, with you
Oh I can feel them coming for me
Here's the pride before the fall
Oh, your eyes, they show it all
I can see it coming
I can see it coming
As I rise up through each floor
Shit gets dark and you lose it all
I can hear it coming
I can hear the drumming
Behind every door
Is a fall, a fall and
No one's here to sleep
You were always faster than me
I'll never catch up with you, with you
Oh I can feel them coming for me
And you were always faster than me
I'll never catch up with you, with you
Oh I can feel them coming for me
You were always faster than me
I'll never catch up with you, with you
Oh I can feel them coming for me
And you were always faster than me
I'll never catch up with you, with you
Oh I can feel them coming for me
(You were always faster than me
I will always catch up with you)
In "No One's Here To Sleep," Naughty Boy paints a haunting and tense picture that explores the secrets and fears that lurk behind closed doors. The repeated line "Behind every door, Is a fall, a fall and, No one's here to sleep" quickly establishes a sense of unease and implies that something terrible is happening. The imagery of climbing up the walls and the lyrics "I can see it coming, I can hear the drumming" evoke a feeling of desperation and impending danger.
The song also touches on the idea of comparison and the pressure to keep up with others. The lines "You were always faster than me, I'll never catch up with you" suggest that the singer is struggling to keep pace with someone else, possibly in terms of success or achievement. The repeated refrain "Oh, I can feel them coming for me" adds to the sense of tension and anxiety that permeates the song.
"No One's Here To Sleep" showcases Naughty Boy's talent for building a sense of atmosphere and creating a mood through his music. The use of a haunting piano melody, ominous strings, and atmospheric synths add to the feeling of unease and tension. The vocals from Bastille's Dan Smith are also a highlight of the track, perfectly conveying the sense of fear and vulnerability in the lyrics.
Line by Line Meaning
Every carpet, every floor
Everywhere I look, I fall
Climbing up the walls
I'm climbing up the walls
No matter where I look, I am surrounded by obstacles, and I am struggling to overcome them. I feel like I am climbing up walls in desperation.
What goes on behind these doors
I'll keep mine and you'll keep yours
We all have our secrets
We all have our secrets
Everyone has something they keep hidden from others. It is not our place to judge or pry, so we must accept that everyone has secrets.
Behind every door
Is a fall, a fall and
No one's here to sleep
No matter where we go, there are always dangers and risks involved. Nobody can relax or let their guard down because danger is always present.
You were always faster than me
I'll never catch up with you, with you
Oh I can feel them coming for me
And you were always faster than me
I'll never catch up with you, with you
Oh I can feel them coming for me
In our relationships, we often feel like we are lagging behind the other person. We can sense that trouble or danger is approaching, but we are unable to keep up with the other person who seems to be handling everything better than we can.
Here's the pride before the fall
Oh, your eyes, they show it all
I can see it coming
I can see it coming
As I rise up through each floor
Shit gets dark and you lose it all
I can hear it coming
I can hear the drumming
Arrogance and overconfidence often precede failure or downfall. We can sense when things are about to take a turn for the worse, as each step we take towards our goals becomes increasingly difficult and dark, and we can hear the ominous approach of danger.

DAMN... did EVERYBODY fall in love with this song from "How To Get Away With Murder"?!
Certainly seems like it!
I don't know if this is also Shonda Rimes doing, but she has GREAT soundtracks for ALL of her shows...
So far, I got hooked on the following artists from her shows:
1. Tegan and Sara -- "Where Does The Good Go" (Grey's Anatomy, episode where Meredith and Christina have their last dance)
2. Amos Lee --"Colors" -- (Grey's Anatomy, at the "prom"... episode where Denny dies)
3. Fran Healy --"In The Morning" (Private Practice, episode where Cooper finds out Charlotte was raped)
*There are more... these are just my TOP THREE so far...or rather, TOP FOUR, now that I found THIS SONG above!

@mnobregaf
+Spiritkiller911 I listened to this song on HTGAWM and recognized Dan's voice but I was like: 'What the hell I don't know this Bastille song? Impossible!" Now I know why! LOL!
@spiritkiller9112
Lol matt
@spiritkiller9112
I know right it was so Intense Tyrant
@D3IM2NTEII1
The scene were Annalise took off her wig, eye lashes and makeup really stood out for me. I felt like she wanted to cry everytime she wiped the makeup off her face, but her strength prevented her from doing so - she had to keep herself composed, at least that's what I thought. An incredibly powerful scene, with great music to add to the suspense. Viola Davis is an astonishing actress.
@richettaholmes2743
Brought me here …🥰
@cleliaganotaki757
it’s like apologise from one republic but heavier and kind of sadder bc of the “lack of emotion” compared to apologise
@alenchristian4599
