When your head is heavy,
Your heartbeat gradually calming down.
As your eyelids slowly drop shut,
Your breath steady with the rise and fall of your chest.
Your bed is comfort,
Relaxing asleep,
Nothing can harm you,
As you count sheep.
One, Two, Three, Four,
You can't get to five before your mind is absorbed.
Up in the clouds,
Away with the fairies.
But then things start to turn scary.
With the flutter of your eyelids,
Tremor of your hands,
You're awake now,
The one thing you can't stand.
Then all you hear are the monsters whisper in your ear,
"You're awake, You're awake, You're awake."
