[ Everytime That You Go To Bed, Is It Always You -vs-
     The Night? ]
[ Is Getting To Sleep Always A Fight? ]

[ When You Close Your Eyes, All You See Is Dark ]
[ The Difference Is Stark ]

[ Dreams Don’t Start ]
[ You Hear The Beats Of Your Heart ]

[ You Open Your Eyes ]
[ & Only (3) Minutes Has Ticked By ]

[ You Can’t Even Count Sheep ]
[ To Get To Sleep ]

[ That Just Doesn’t Work For You ]
[ If It Does Work ]
[ Than For Who? ]

[ You Take The Most Potent Sleep Medication There Is ]
[ It Is Right There, On The Top Of The List ]

[ After Drinking It, You Just Sit There & Wait ]
[ & Wait & Wait & Wait ]
[ You See That It Is Getting Late ]

[ So Much Time Goes By, It Becomes Early The Next Day ]
[ But You Keep Waiting To Drift Away ]

[ Then You Become A Prisoner To Your Medication ]
[ It Changes Your Thinking ]
[ Your Equilibrium Goes On Vacation ]

[ It Is A Very Potent, Mind Changing Drug ]
[ It Is Not A Warm Hug ]

[ It Tastes So Salty You Just Want To Drink It Really Fast ]
[ But The Taste Still Lasts ]

[ It Is Like Pouring ½ A Salt Shaker On Your Tongue ]
[ You Don’t Even Do That When You’re Young ]

[ The Minutes Just Drag On ]
[ ½ The Night Is Gone ]

[ Must You Hold Your Breath? ]
[ To Get Some Rest? ]
