Faithless - Insomnia Lyrics

This track delves into the restless psyche of an individual haunted by insomnia. The protagonist's inability to sleep is linked to a sense of unease and dissatisfaction with life, symbolized by the empty refrigerator and the burnt mattress. The song captures the desperation for release from this state, expressed through the plea to insomnia to let them dream and find respite. The reference to 'making mad love on the heath' suggests a longing for passion and excitement that seems unattainable in their current condition. Despite being physically exhausted, they are mentally alert due to anxiety, represented by 'creaky noises' that exacerbate their loneliness and restlessness. In essence, "Insomnia" encapsulates a poignant struggle with mental distress and yearning for escape. 🌙
