This misty grey day
Looked back at me
and smiled at the sight
See my reddened brown eyes
Joy in my head
As my neck suffered another
crashed out night
On my pillow made of lead
Toss to the turn as the sleep monster says
"no sleep for you boy awaken the dead"
Awaken the dead ? I thought
As my head lolled around
Thoughts of another night
Lost to no sound
Aches to my bones as I shudder the sleep
Fall at my side
Fall as a heap
Sleep please forgive me as I bid you farewell
Another day started
My living
My hell

This misty grey day
Looked back at me
and smiled at the sight
See my reddened brown eyes
Joy in my head
As my neck suffered another
crashed out night
On my pillow made of lead
Toss to the turn as the sleep monster says
"no sleep for you boy awaken the dead"
Awaken the dead ? I thought
As my head lolled around
Thoughts of another night
Lost to no sound
Aches to my bones as I shudder the sleep
Fall at my side
Fall as a heap
Sleep please forgive me as I bid you farewell
Another day started
My living
My hell
