[Intro]
Ooh, I'ma vent on this one
Let you take a journey through my mind
Let you know what I'm thinking about
Yeah. Yeah yeah. Uh-huh

[Chorus: Eels]
I need some sleep
You can't go on like this
I tried counting sheep
But there's one I always miss
Everyone said, I'm getting down too low
Everyone said, you just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go

[Verse 1: Kyle Coglitore]
I often sit and wish that I could just change my past
I think about you dad there's so much shit that I could ask
Like why am I still haunted by the day that you left
I wake up in the middle of the night with cold sweats
I can't believe this happened, can't believe you're gone
I shoulda known it that when I woke that something went wrong
All the loud screams, me running down the stairs
And she was by your side and you were just laying there
I didn't know what to do, I tried to call the cops
I was tryin' so hard to fight back all my tear drops
And then the paramedics busted in through the door
Then the cops told me you were fine they even reassured
I'm sorry pops I let you down I shoulda been there quicker
I ain't forgot you lookin' down while I cry on your picture
Just know I miss I didn't forget our plans still in motion
Let's reminisce about the good and let's forget the hopeless

[Chorus: Eels]
I need some sleep
You can't go on like this
I tried counting sheep
But there's one I always miss
Everyone said, I'm getting down too low
Everyone said, you just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go

[Verse 2: Kyle Coglitore]
I don't know what it is about my face that gets these kids
'Cuz the ladies love it but their dudes can't get over it
Im sorry that I took your chick, I didn't mean to cause all this
I never knew that y'all were friends just listen try to comprehend
Damn she hurt your feelings, she made ya feel the blues
Everything about her sets you off through the roof
You never thought she'd cheat but she went and did it didn't she?
Now you run away from that bitch fuckin' sprinting
Now without a doubt she tricked and played you out
She tries to speak her piece but ya start to scream aloud
Here comes the water works, why's this love gotta hurt
She was wrong but now she's got you feelin' like you're the worst
Your right i'd hate her too, all that shit she did to you
All the lies she put you through, you can do without her dude
You don't need a chick that will run behind your back
Now you feel like you're the one that everyone be laughin' at

[Chorus: Eels]
I need some sleep
You can't go on like this
I tried counting sheep
But there's one I always miss
Everyone said, I'm getting down too low
Everyone said, you just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go

[Verse 3: Kyle Coglitore]
If you felt abused, misused or confused
Lemme tell ya you're not the only one 'cuz I felt it too
'Cuz these dudes ain't got a clue, of what you been going through
These problems that have followed you, it's like they haunt your every move
It makes you go insane, makes ya wanna blow your brains
I'll sustain all the pain, that has happened to me man
I drown my sorrows 'till tomorrow, with the goose and cranny
I get so stupid fuckin' useless, 'till these fools can't stand me
But they just stick around, begging me to calm down
Not knowing im really 'bout to snap because it's on now
I just feel the need to tell you whats affecting me
My main chick's been neglecting me her missin' is a tragedy
I'm guessing that she left me 'cuz of the feelings I'm suppressing and
Everything feels less when she ain't there to help me rest, damn
I just wanna let you know that I'll never let you go
And that my feelings for you are irresistible

[Ending: Eels]
Just gotta let it go
Just gotta let it go
Just gotta let it go
