Insomnia

Another night, all trapped in my head
Under the covers, wide awake in my bed.

My mind is racing, I just want to sleep
But I can't, it's so hard when your thoughts run so deep.

I fluff up the pillows, change the position which I lay
Why, oh why can't I just drift away?

I want to nod off and enjoy a sweet dream
But instead it's a nightmare, I just want to scream.

I toss and I turn, my brain starts to stress
I don't know what to do, no rest for the wicked I guess.

And as I resign myself to another night of pain
I turn on some ASMR, suddenly it's morning again!
