sleepless

my head weighs on this concrete pillow
my body lays on a bed of nails
soft comfort has become so alien
all my efforts of sleep have failed

Need some sleep
please just sleep
dreams are what i need

restless as i fight my duvet
my mind continues to explode into song
tired of thoughts that keep on racing
shattered dreams are now all but gone

Need some sleep
please just sleep
dreams are what i need

Days blurring into subconscious
autopilot is now wearing down
fear and loathing of my pillow
i am heading for meltdown

Need some sleep
please just sleep
dreams are what i need
