As I lie in my bed
Drifting off into the night
I cant sleep so instead:
I'll lie awake till it's light
There are so many things
I should have done by day
But I've been feeling low
And I cannot find a way
To make a change and get
Myself through today
Before I grow distracted
And my mind drifts astray
Later and later
Dread growing greater
I wish for some sleep
Oh
I wish for some sleep
As I lie in my bed
Drifting off into the night
I cant sleep so instead:
I'll lie awake till it's light
How did I find myself right here
Unable to sleep as I fear
All the tasks I've been ignoring
That I must face come the morning
Consciousness fading
Thoughts dissipating
I wish for some sleep
Oh
I wish for some sleep
As I lie counting sheep
Drifting off into the night
Mind grows weak though may sleep
I'll get some rest through the night
