I have to agree

[@justignoreme4330]

I love how all the while he's singing, he sounds as if he's trying to keep it together, but is slowly slipping into madness. Especially in the beginning, when his voice tremors and begins to grow louder and more aggressive.

[@Whispersteppe]

I was diagnosed with severe clinical insomnia in 2008 as well as a few other mental health issues later in in 2011. I was able to find songs that spoke to my other mental illnesses but I have found it hard to find ones for my insomnia. I just found this song and it not only speaks to my insomnia but screams to it. I have listened to a few Set It Off songs over the years but I absolutely love this one.

[@sobrrmilk]

I can't stop listening to it,my little sister tried to listen to it she said it was too scary

[@thescarfytiger3444]

I see a lot of people in the comments joking about not sleeping, so I just want to say that Insomnia is really a living hell, and most people don't know what it's like not being able to get any sleep, and it's really not funny at all.

[@Minezanians]

The people making these jokes have insomnia themselves. Its a coping mechanism to make a joke out of it. We make jokes to make ourselves and others people feel better even in the darkest situations. learn about comedy :).

[@thescarfytiger3444]

i’ll never understand how they were able to so accurately capture what it feels like to be an insomniac. that desperate desire to sleep constantly being fought off by increasing amounts of anxiety as your sleep deprivation continues to compound the situation and continue to make things worse. brutal

[@深沢賢一]

"I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" Lyrics are very great. Thank you for a wonderful video . thanks. ある意味、意識を失う眠りは一種の仮の死の体験。 明日も生きることを当たり前と信じるから怖くない。 しかし眠りは死の儀式を体験できる身近な習慣。 眠ることは・・ 死への仮の体験により生という現実体験を見つめ返す充実の生命復活の儀式か? それとも絶望に生きる闇の習慣性か? 　死ぬまで人は眠れない、、。 人生とは自分に対する鍛えの戦い。　イビキがひどくてすみまてん＞＜ﾉ

Attention All insomniacs Please raise your right hand And kindly repeat after me I guess I'll sleep when I am dead! Cause I'm stuck, self-torturing My meds are failing me Internal clock in smithereens Can't fix this, I'm hopeless My eyes are stapled open wide As I lay down on my side (my side) I am bouncing off these walls (I am bouncing off these walls) As I focus on the clock Time stands still but I cannot (time stands still) I should strap myself in bed I guess I'll sleep when I am dead I guess I'll sleep when I am

The beauty of music is that it's about whatever you want it to be about. If you see the song as being about internet addiction then you are right, I however see it as being about some personal struggle I'm going through that I don't care to talk about, I am also right. Music is meant to express emotions and stir up emotions in you and help you express, or realize them.
