Never Sleep Again
James Q
rap
female vocals
sleep
classic
Soft
Dark horror trap with female vocals. Start with sparse
detuned music-box plucks and distant
reverb-soaked ambience
plus a soft child-choir sample murmuring the key line in unison. After 4–8 bars
lurch into a crushing low-end trap beat: booming sub
tight kicks
skittering hi-hats
and metallic percussive hits. Verses stay close and breathy; chorus widens with layered
slightly distorted harmonies. Ear-candy: reversed risers
whispers
glitchy echoes. Wide
cinematic mix that keeps the vocal front and chilling.

[Intro]
little house
empty swing
rust on the gate
something in the wind
slow steps
bare feet on the floor
door cracks open
no one at the door
soft lullaby
wrong melody
shadows counting
slow and steady
children singing
right behind my head
“9-10, never sleep again” (shh)
“9-10, never sleep again”
[Chorus]
never sleep again
keep the lights on, they don’t help
something crawled out of my head
left fingerprints on my neck
never sleep again
every corner holds its breath
if I close my eyes one second
I might not come back from this bed (oh)
never sleep again
scratches on the window pane
hear it breathing in the vents
whispering my very first name
[Verse 1]
pill bottles
lined like little guards
they can’t stop
what lives in the dark
tv snow
flickers on my skin
see a face
smiling in the static grin
counting cracks
on the ceiling seam
one by one
they’re crawling in my dreams
nails on the wall
dragging down slow
I’m awake, I’m awake
but I still can’t go
[Chorus]
never sleep again
keep the lights on, they don’t help
something crawled out of my head
left fingerprints on my neck
never sleep again
every corner holds its breath
if I close my eyes one second
I might not come back from this bed
never sleep again
scratches on the window pane
hear it breathing in the vents
whispering my very first name
[Bridge]
I hear them hum that line
right behind my spine (yeah)
little hands clap once
right on the knife-edge of time
I bite my tongue
just to feel it bleed
if this is a dream
why can’t I leave?
[Chorus]
never sleep again
keep the lights on, they don’t help
something crawled out of my head
left fingerprints on my neck
never sleep again
every corner holds its breath
if I close my eyes one second
I might not come back from this bed
never sleep again
they’re counting down in my head
tiny voices to the end
“9-10, never sleep again” (again)
little house

“9-10, never sleep again”
