Just lie still, please
Sleep will come, I promise
You only have to fight until it comes
Your mind will slow, the voices will quiet
Eyes droop closed slowly...
Your limbs will relax...
Your breath will even out...

But, I need you to lie still
Please, Lovely,
Don't reach over there
You don't need it
You'll be alright
Just lay still
Succumb to gravity
Until the warmth of the night
Wraps itself around your mind
And the voices will go silent
You will be allowed rest

Just lie still for me, alright?
