Restless Legs Syndrome is a song about insomnia
and mental health.
About not wanting to do anything but having to do
everything.
It was written during countless sleepless nights,
with nothing to do and a lot on our minds.
Semi somnolent thoughts and worries are included
in the song’s verses, and it feels like a lot of the
lyrics are actually written while half asleep - like a
real slacker indie song.
This is the first song we wrote for the Case Study Song EP and there are quite a few
versions recorded by now. We still don’t know which one will make the lead and are
probably second guessing at the moment...
lyrics
I go to bed in the morning
I couldn’t sleep the whole night
I go though not really wanting
So I could say that I tried
I always thought that it’s easy
To sleep whenever I’m tired
Tomorrow’s gonna be Tuesday
Don’t wanna move but I have
Restless legs
I fall asleep but just keep coming back
Pierce my head
Dont wanna move but I have restless legs
Syndrome
I take a pill in the morning
I take a pill every night
I take a pill when I’m sad and
I take it when I’m alright
Taking it makes it easy
To sleep whenever I’m tired
Don’t wanna go to your birthday
Don’t wanna go but I have restless legs
I fall asleep but just keep coming back
Pierce my head
Dont wanna move but I have restless legs
