Chloroform Lullaby — Original Song by Nikki Sings (Ethereal Dark Ambient Pop)

Content Note: This song contains themes of addiction and unhealthy dependence. If you or someone you care about is struggling with substance use or emotional distress, please consider reaching out to a trusted professional or a support resource in your area. You deserve help and support. ⸻ Chloroform Lullaby is a quiet song about the strange comfort of things that numb us. The routines we promise are temporary. The “last time” that keeps happening. The gentle lie we tell ourselves that this is helping us sleep. This track lives in that fragile space between exhaustion and surrender — when the room is dark, the mind is loud, and the thing that hurts you starts to feel like the only thing that can make it quiet. Sometimes the most dangerous things don’t arrive like monsters. Sometimes they sing you to sleep. ⸻ Lyrics and vocals by Nikki Sings Thank you for listening and supporting original music on this channel. If you’ve been following along for a while, you know my songs wander across a lot of strange territory — from pirates and glitter-fueled chaos to quiet songs like this one. — Nikki ——— Lyrics: [Verse 1] Pill on the tongue Plastic cup Blue light Curtains drawn at noon Call it “calling it a night” You say it's small But it’s bigger than my faith I tuck it under my pillow Like a razor made of grace [Chorus] Sing me that chloroform lullaby Hold my breath till my thoughts lie down Rock me slow in a chemical sky Let me drown Let me drown Then pull me out I can’t close my eyes Till you close my mind Chloroform lullaby Wrap me up one more time [Verse 2] You measure drops Like you’re counting all my sins I promise “I’ll be careful” As the room folds inward again Clock hands blur But the craving stays sharp Every “last time” carved Like a notch in my dark [Chorus] Sing me that chloroform lullaby Hold my breath till my thoughts lie down Rock me slow in a chemical sky Let me drown Let me drown Then pull me out I can’t close my eyes Till you close my mind Chloroform lullaby Wrap me up one more time [Bridge] I used to dream in colors Now it’s just a quiet fade (so quiet) Promise me a morning While you take the night away If I wake I’ll swear it off If I sleep I’ll want it more (oh, I know) I’m praying to the poison Like it’s what my pulse is for [Chorus] Sing me that chloroform lullaby Hold my breath till my thoughts lie down Rock me slow in a chemical sky Let me drown Let me drown Then pull me out I can’t close my eyes Till you close my mind Chloroform lullaby Wrap me up one more time
