The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Everybody Dies in Their Nightmares" by the artist "XXXTENTACION"

Contents

In "Everybody Dies in Their Nightmares," XXXTENTACION delves into themes of loneliness, pain, distrust, and an existential crisis.

Shiloh Dynasty's intro, "Don't fall asleep, don't go to sleep... don't rest your head and fall asleep," sets a tone of anxiety and insomnia, hinting at the internal struggles haunting the lyrical protagonist.

XXXTENTACION unravels these struggles, describing feeling "trapped" in his own thoughts, surrounded by "lies," and perceiving life as a "damn game." He confesses a fear of love, choosing "numbness" as a shield. Loneliness, a cycle of fleeting connections, and the inability to trust further fuel his pain.

The recurring line "Ngga really wanna die in his sleep" is not a suicidal statement but a cry for help, an expression of unbearable emotional anguish. Nighttime, devoid of external distractions, becomes the time when inner darkness consumes him entirely.

[Shiloh Dynasty:]

Don't go, don't go to sleep,

Don't go, stay up and don't go.

[XXXTENTACION:]

Tired of feelin' like I'm trapped in my damn mind,

Tired of feelin' like I'm wrapped in a damn lie,

Tired of feelin' like my life is a damn game,

Nga really wanna die in the night time.

Only time I feel pain, when I feel in love,

That's why it's tatted on my face that I'm damn numb,

Only time I'm in my mind, when I'm all alone,

That's why I'm really never alone in the night time,

Change hoes like clothes, I can't get attached,

'Cause these hoes fire starters like lit matches,

I've been feeling really lost, ducking all attachments,

I don't really go outside 'cause I hate traffic,

I don't wanna go outside, get caught in traffic.

Tired of feelin' like I'm trapped in my damn mind,

Tired of feelin' like I'm wrapped in a damn lie,

Tired of feelin' like my life is a damn game,

Nga really wanna die in the night time.

Tired of feelin' like I'm trapped in my damn mind,

Tired of feelin' like I'm wrapped in a damn lie,

Tired of feelin' like my life is a damn game,

Nga really wanna die in the night time.

Tired of feelin' like I'm trapped in my damn mind,

Tired of feelin' like I'm wrapped in a damn lie,

Tired of feelin' like my life is a damn game,

Nga really wanna die in the night time,

Nga really wanna die in the night time,

Nga really wanna die in the night time,

Nga really wanna die in the night time, uh,

Nga really wanna die in the night time, uh,

Nga really wanna die in the night time!
