about

"Last Lions have been performing the track since their early days, playing gigs in their mates’ backyards. The song carries years of experience, and in those years, the band have built a truly captivating sound for themselves." - Happy Mag

Sleep Forever is about not knowing exactly why you're unhappy, and therefore not knowing how to fix it.

lyrics

I nearly did something so great today
I went out and perfected all of my mistakes
I took my time to get them the best that I could
I thought my biggest fuck ups had never looked so good

I nearly did something so great today
I went to write a song but had nothing to say
I could've forced the words and made it sound alright
I'd rather try and keep myself up every night

By worrying about whatever I insist
I worry most about the things that don't exist
And I'm not quite sure what's upset me now this week
So I'll just eat my feelings for go right back to sleep

I nearly did something now with these past four years
I had the chance, although it bored me around to tears
I could've forced the work and made myself feel proud
I couldn't get there quite, my dreams were just too loud

They woke me up again now just the other night
For the first time in a while I've been sleeping alright
It's one of the best things I've ever learned to do
I might just do it all day, hopefully with you

I hope that you can join me too
