Melatonin

## Track Listing

**Melatonin** is the second track and single from Lady Jesus. It was released on June 11, 2021, along with its music video.

## Background & Composition

When the single was released UPSAHL made a post on her Instagram account in which she said: *"Welcome to Chapter 2: Melatonin*

*I wrote Melatonin shortly after Douchebag. I was super anxious all the time and had crazy insomnia, so I really wasn't sleeping. Melatonin is about being so overwhelmed with your emotions, that you can't even escape your problems in your dreams. Thanks to Pete Nappi and Elijah Noll for writing this one with me and to George Gallardo Kattah for bringing the Melatonin world to life 🖤*

*Melatonin represents the next phase in my story. Hope you guys enjoy Chapter 2 and stay tuned for more…"*

## Theme

After Douchebag, UPSAHL had problems sleeping and was needing help from melatonin to actually fall asleep following the events that peaked before.

## Release and promotion

The single was initially annunced on an Instagram Live, and then played at the Young Life Crisis virtual concert. UPSAHL then shared snippets of the song on TikTok in the beginning of June and then on June 7 she announced that the single would be released on the following Friday (11).

## Lyrics

**[Intro]**

Think I had too much to dream last night, yeah

I feel like I didn't sleep last night

**[Verse 1]**

Take all the doubt

All the dirty laundry, air it out

Got a bad taste in my mouth

From all that shit-talkin' to myself

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I should take this as a sign, as an indication

I got issues in my mind and I gotta face 'em

When I'm turning off the lights I go to other places

Got the sun up in my eyes, I'm afraid, I

**[Chorus]**

Think I had too much to dream last night

I feel like I didn't sleep last night

Stressed out with circles under my eyes

Melatonin shots

I don't wanna talk 'cause I

Think I had too much to dream last night

All of my problems got real last night

Now that I know how I feel I might take

Melatonin shots

Till I'm nodding off, yeah

**[Verse 2]**

Sorry that I'm late

Woke up in the morning feeling strange

Told you I'm okay

But tonight I'm back to circling the drain, yeah

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I should take this as a sign, as an indication

I got issues in my mind and I gotta face 'em

When I'm turning off the lights I go to other places

Got the sun up in my eyes, I'm afraid, I

**[Chorus]**

Think I had too much to dream last night

I feel like I didn't sleep last night

Stressed out with circles under my eyes

Melatonin shots

I don't wanna talk 'cause I

Think I had too much to dream last night

All of my problems got real last night

Now that I know how I feel I might take

Melatonin shots

Till I'm nodding off, yeah

**[Bridge]**

I should take this as a sign, as an indication

I got issues in my mind and I gotta face 'em

When I'm turning off the lights I go to other places

Got the sun up in my eyes, I'm afraid, I

**[Chorus]**

Think I had too much to dream last night

I feel like I didn't sleep last night

Stressed out with circles under my eyes

Melatonin shots

I don't wanna talk 'cause I

Think I had too much to dream last night

All of my problems got real last night

Now that I know how I feel I might take

Melatonin shots

Till I'm nodding off, yeah
