My debut album ‘Paint My Bedroom Black’ is out now and I’m so excited that it’s finally yours. Get the album — subscribe to my youtube: sign up to my mailing list ‘bored, ignored & out of my mind’: follow me on socials @hollyhumberstone I wrote this song a while ago whilst still unsure of who I wanted to be and where I wanted to head musically. Writing this song was probably the first time I felt like I knew who I was within the music I was making. The track is about losing momentum and feeling like your emotions will slowly destroy the relationship you’re in and you altogether. I think the dark, wonky sonics define who I am musically, which is why Falling Asleep At The Wheel is such a milestone track for me, and has taught me so much about myself as a musician. We created the song at the house I grew up in, which is very old and falling apart, in the middle of the countryside. You can almost hear the weird sounds of the house within the track. It’s where I feel the most me and love that this is all coming from that one place.

A Fifth Sister and Deep End Production Falling Asleep At The Wheel lyrics Oh, you never smoked this much before we met Light up, light up another cigarette I can tell you’re drinking only to forget Don’t know how I got you in such a mess How am I supposed to be your ray of light, your ray of light I get dark sometimes, does it pass you by? I should be your ray of light, your ray of light But I’m falling, falling asleep at the wheel Guess I forgot how to feel Just for a second you’re talking But I’m just pretending you have my attention I’m falling, falling asleep at the wheel I made you think it was real If you think we're strong enough Come on and wake me up You never looked this tense before we met Back up, back when we were so innocent All this emotion that we're buried in Tied up, fired up on this adrenaline How am I supposed to be your ray of light, your ray of light Not a cloud in sight, what a perfect night I should be your ray of light, your ray of light But that’s not me And I’m falling, falling asleep at the wheel Guess I forgot how to feel Just for a second you’re talking But I’m just pretending you have my attention I’m falling, falling asleep at the wheel I made you think it was real If you think we're strong enough Come on and wake me up Wake me up Come on and wake me up. Come on and wake me up If you think we're strong enough, wake me up And I’m falling, falling asleep at the wheel Guess I forgot how to feel Just for a second you’re talking But I’m just pretending you have my attention I’m falling, falling asleep at the wheel I made you think it was real If you think we're strong enough Come on and wake me up Wake me up Wake me up, wake me up If you think we're strong enough Come on and wake me up Wake me up, wake me up #hollyhumberstone #fallingasleep #fallingasleepatthewheel
