lyrics

My skin is crawling
Nightmares are calling
Just like a song on repeat
The state of bedlam
I seek asylum
But haven't slept in a week

Chaos and danger
Sleep is a stranger
You knock but nobody's home
No one can save me
Or can uncage me
Chained to my worries again

The loudest silence
Breaks down my defense
No one can save me now

'Cause I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep to...

This pain I'm dreading
The needle's threading
Can't do this on my own
The loudest silence
Breaks down my defense
Surrounded by I'm alone

The loudest silence
Breaks down my defense
No one can save me now

'Cause I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep to...

So many things to live through again
So many failures and former friends
They won't let me rest
And now the quiet's coming for me
The sound of endless anxiety
It won't let me rest

The loudest silence
Breaks down my defense
No one can save me now

'Cause I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't, no I won't
I won't

No I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't
I won't

No I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't
I won't sleep tonight
No I won't
I won't sleep tonight

about

The Scratches image

The Scratches Columbus, Ohio

The Scratches are a melodic punk band from Columbus, Ohio. They're bringing back pop-punk from before it was a dirty word, mixing in plenty of catchy hooks with skate punk double time rhythms, ripping melodic bass lines, tag team vocals, and 4 part harmonies. It’s fun, it’s catchy, and it’s the real deal.
