AVIV – Sleep it Off Lyrics

Up on the rooftop when I was 13
Looking down at the pavement, 1000 bodies
Never felt anything like that before

When I get this sad, I'm consumed by you
When I didn't know that something someone could do
Try not to think about it too much

When I cling to people like they're already dead
Just sleep it off
That's what my mother says
But when I close my eyes, I can taste it
Thinking back to times before, I slowly faded

I love too much I get carried away
Just drawn to people I desire to save
My paranoia turns to grief

When I cling on to people like they're already dead
Just sleep it off
That's what my mother says, but when I close my eyes, I can taste it

And now I'm spiraling on the tip of my tongue and
I'm cursing them for taking up my thoughts
Cuz if I were to fly, I'd just think about my parents

So I cling to people like they're already dead
Just sleep it off
Can we just go to bed?
But when I close my eyes, I can taste it

And now I'm spiraling on the tip of my tongue and
I'm cursing god for taking you so young
Cuz if I were to fly, I'd rather them just hate me
So that I leave behind a villain in the making
