Description
An alarming melody, like the light of lanterns in the fog, when it is unclear whether the night is still lasting or dawn is already near. The heart beats too loudly, and thoughts race like waves that cannot be caught up with. There is no anguish here, only a strange persistence: even if everything falls apart, breathing continues, and steps lead forward through the darkness.
The words about insomnia sound like a confession and a mantra - an attempt to feel life in a half-sleep. Each line breathes this unstable state between ‘I live’ and ‘I dream’, but under the rhythm of the pulse, hope can be sensed: the heart is still working, which means there is a chance to wake up for real.

Lyrics and translation
Original
I feel like I'm falling apart
And I've been chasing waves
Love isn't love in the dark
Ah-ah
When nothing is going my way
It feels so wrong to say
But I know I'm not giving up
Now I'm sleepless
Don't know if I'm living or dreaming
Yeah, I'm sleepless
Try to feel alive, my heart is beating
Now I'm sleepless on and on
Sleepless
Don't know if I'm living or I'm dreaming
Yeah, I'm sleepless
Try to feel alive, my heart is beating
Now I'm sleepless on and on
Was it an echo
That I couldn't let go
Voices repeating in my mind
Thought that I met you
But it was a memory
You got me dreaming every night
And all I wanna say
I feel like I'm falling apart
And I've been chasing waves
Love isn't love in the dark
Ah-ah-ahh
Ah-ah-ahh
Ah-ah-ahh
Love isn't love in the dark
Now I'm sleepless
Don't know if I'm living or dreaming
Yeah, I'm sleepless
Try to feel alive, my heart is beating
Now I'm sleepless on and on
Sleepless
Don't know if I'm living or I'm dreaming
Yeah, I'm sleepless
Try to feel alive, my heart is beating
Now I'm sleepless on and on
