Oh, lovelies, the song for this #MusicMonday is Insomnia by IAMX and it’s one of those that I liked the first time I heard it, and then I heard it again when I was working late on ‘Black Light: Exposed’ and just completely fell in love. I’ve had it in my head all week, I’ve probably listened to it a hundred times, and I just adore it. There’s something to the lyrics, and the way he kind of loses it while he’s singing, that just makes Insomnia stand out. Enjoy!

Favorite Lyrics

The day is incomplete,
the thoughts of total defeat.
I don’t know what is happening to me,
or if I’ll die, ’cause I just never sleep!

You awoke into my night,
you could see the madness in my eyes.
I’ve lost control, please save me from myself.
I’ve lost control, please save me from myself.

My conscience begs for time,
’cause you can’t fight the clock ticking inside.
I’m just a bigger baby me,
acting smart, oh what irony.

Where will I end up tonight?
Getting fucked or frying my mind?
I’ve lost control, please save me from myself.
I’ve lost control, please save me from myself.

Calm me down with your caress,
I’ll get off while I watch you undress.
Maybe the sex will help me to forget
a precious, transient, schizophrenic bliss.

Oh, my god, you’re beautiful!
Why do you stay with this neurotic fool?
I’ve lost control, please save me from myself.
I’ve lost control, please save me from myself.
