Smashing Pumpkins - In The Arms Of Sleep (Lyrics)

Song released in the album Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness

[nwcultsightings]

When you're so tired but can't sleep cause your heart is pounding with the memories of recent events

[eroz]

When you've slept 7 hours in an entire week and the only person who can give you peace is a thousand miles away

[hmonsta]

"....and I'll always need her more than she could ever need me".

This song is such a treasure, as it could be perceived to be about drug addiction, the lack of ability to sleep, or severely missing a loved one. I can see a plausible argument for each. I have to stop listening to it when I start because I listen to it everywhere I go and have been doing so since I bought the CD when it first came out, then I come back to it. This song and Spaceboy are my favorite Smashing Pumpkins songs.

This song pulls at my heart strings and sends me to another place and time when I was so fed up with life I wanted to end it.Such emotion❤

[ThatBigNV]

This is definitely one of Billy's amd Pumpkins best pieces of work, I can close my eyes and imagine watching my Beautiful Fiancé walking in nature on a warm sunny day, no worries, no concerns....just seeing her smile in happiness. That's where this song takes me today❤

[jonathanreeves]

Makes me miss my brother he died in June from fentanyl

[devmani]

most heartfelt song by Billy Corgan pure emotions

[vlllahhhh]

This song is so beautiful honestly I'd want this to play at my funeral. All the ethereal layers of music and the poetic lyricism that perfectly suits it. I wish there was more behind the scenes content for this song. I'd like to know the story behind it
