Insomnia

Here I sit it's one A.M.,

I should be sleeping now,

My mind's awake and thinking,

but my body's wondering how.

Insomnia, Insomnia,

Thy wicked name implies,

That slumber ceases to exist,

and so I must arise.

Why do you tease my inner peace,

my sanctuary so?

What have I done to deserve this test?

I beg you now, please go!

With many thoughts racing through my head

I Think: I Murmur: I Yell

"CLOSE YOUR EYES AND GO TO BED!"

Of course it isn't working because on this night nothing works well

As I watch my blinds, which are ever ajar,

I see an amazing sight

Through my bloodshot eyes I see the sun from a far

It is morning, here to end this horrific night 

Oh peaceful sleep I dream to feel your presence,

as the school day draws near,

Insomnia, Insomnia,

Farewell , my Sleep, my need for you is crystal clear.
