Can't Sleep
Ricky Hil Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I tried to find it in my heart to save you
But the love is lost, yeah
We drew a line in the sand together, and it got crossed
Then you left me alone, left me alone
Then you left me alone, left me alone
And now i wanna die die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die
Baby, now i wanna die die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die
Yeah, Yeah
Now i wanna

Go away, you don′t love me anymore
You don't love me anymore
Yeah, Yeah
I don′t wanna be here anymore
I don't wanna be here anymore
I don't know why I′m even here for
I don′t know why I'm even here for
I′m tryna get high, put me on the floor
I can't take anymore

Look down where I′m headed
If you're down, then you get it
I hope I die and they forget it
The pain is embedded
You hear it when I said it
I Can′t Sleep, they're whispering to me
I know you wanna see me bleed
'Cause you′re filled up with greed
You′re wishing I would die
But I ain't gonna leave, yeah
You gon′ wait for me
Like a kid on Christmas Eve
That bitch is thick as thieves
We come through thick as thieves
Got this L thicked up with leaves

I tried to find it in my heart to save you
But the love is lost, yeah
We drew a line in the sand together, and it got crossed
Then you left me alone, left me alone
Then you left me alone, left me alone
And now i wanna die die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die
Baby, now i wanna die die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die-die




Yeah, Yeah
Now i wanna

Overall Meaning

In the song "Can't Sleep" by Ricky Hil, the lyrics revolve around lost love, heartbreak and pain. The opening lines express the singer's intention to save their loved one, but the love is lost. They had drawn a line together, but it got crossed, and now they are left alone. The chorus expresses the singer's pain, as they wish to die now that their love is gone. They want to go away and can't bear to be in this situation anymore. They don't know why they're still here and are trying to numb their pain by getting high.


The second verse suggests that the singer is spiraling into a place of darkness. The pain is embedded, and they can't sleep as they hear the whispers of others wishing them harm. They know that the person who left them wishes they would die, but they won't give them the satisfaction. The singer is determined to stick around and not give up. The bridge expresses the idea that the two lovers were like thieves in love, and now they're left with nothing but a joint full of leaves.
