|
Deep in the bosom of the gentle night |
|
Is when I search for the light |
|
Pick up my pen and start to write |
|
I struggle, fight dark forces in the clear moon light |
|
Without fear, insomnia, I can't get no sleep |
|
I used to worry, thought I was goin' mad in a hurry |
|
Gettin' stress, makin' excess mess in darkness |
|
No electricity, something's all over me, greasy |
|
Insomnia, please, release me and let me dream of |
|
Makin' mad love to my girl on the heath |
|
Tearin' off tights with my teeth |
|
But there's no release, no peace |
|
I toss and turn without cease |
|
Like a curse, open my eyes and rise like yeast |
|
At least a couple of weeks |
|
Since I last slept, kept takin' sleepers |
|
But now I keep myself pepped |
|
Deeper still, that night I write by candle light |
|
I find insight, fundamental movement, uh |
|
So when it's black, this insomniac, take an original tack |
|
Keep the beast in my nature under ceaseless attack |
|
I gets no sleep, I can't get no sleep |
|
I can't get no sleep, I can't get no sleep |
|
I need to sleep, I can't get no sleep |
|
I need to sleep, I can't get no sleep |
