I see myself where I want to be
Then open my eyes to find myself here
Held captive by everything that should save me
And somehow set free by the things that I fear
Asleep in the hours the sun should sustain me
Awake in the hours the moonlight should claim
Never to know which will rise and forsake me
Never to know which to thank or to blame
The harder I try, the more sleep escapes me
To try not all renders slumber undone
I sleep when I wake, and awaken in sleeping
Rest never comes even when it is won
