Yawning Component is an indie band from the heart of San Francisco. Formed in 2006 by college friends Zoe Becker (lead vocals, keyboard) and Clark Finnegan (drums), they initially played coffee shops and local bars, drawing in a crowd with their unique sound and pensive lyricism. In 2008, they expanded their band to include Will Hargrove (guitarist) and Olivia Summers (bass), who brought a new depth and complexity to their music.

Title: “Sleepless Symphony”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Fmaj7 – G – Am
Awake in the silence, under the moon’s cold glare,
Fmaj7 – G – Am
In this sleepless symphony, echoes of despair.
Fmaj7 – G – Am
Shadows dancing on the wall, as the world stands still,
Fmaj7 – G – Am
Lost in thought, in this quiet night, against my will.
(Chorus)
C – G – Am
Singing lullabies to the stars,
C – G – Am
Strumming cords on a guitar,
C – G – Am
In this sleepless symphony,
C – G – Am
We find our harmony.
(Verse 2)
Fmaj7 – G – Am
Dreams are like whispers, that the night wind carried,
Fmaj7 – G – Am
In this sleepless symphony, our fears are buried.
Fmaj7 – G – Am
We’re just passengers of time, riding the breath of the night,
Fmaj7 – G – Am
In the silent symphony, we find our light.
(Chorus)
C – G – Am
Singing lullabies to the stars,
C – G – Am
Strumming cords on a guitar,
C – G – Am
In this sleepless symphony,
C – G – Am
We find our harmony.
