The darkness mocks me As I lay unable to see He laughs as I struggle to fall asleep The leap is too far it makes me weep A steep climb I can only make alone to drift far away in the comfort of home Some suggest the aid of a soporific drink but I fear this syrup will make me sink So I waive this offer and continue to trial I come to the stand as he cracks a wry smile *Please I beg just let me fall into a trance I know your stance but I just want a fair chance* **You cannot cheat sleep even if you pay in advance, it's simpler than you think , especially at first glance** I'm trying I'm trying the girl stated her plea You are mistaken child I'm no judge but a referee *O please O please I just want to sleep, I won't be gone long just give me the key* **This game that we play is a habitual ritual, you mustn't need aid it can't be artificial** **I suggest you focus until the end is official, what you achieve is mutually beneficial** **You are the key child look inside real deep, tune out the noise and you'll find what you seek**

Restless Night
The darkness mocks me As I lay unable to see He laughs as I struggle to fall asleep The leap is too far it makes me weep A steep climb I can only make alone to drift far away in the comfort of home Some suggest the aid of a soporific drink but I fear this syrup will make me sink So I waive this offer and continue to trial I come to the stand as he cracks a wry smile *Please I beg just let me fall into a trance I know your stance but I just want a fair chance* **You cannot cheat sleep even if you pay in advance, it's simpler than you think , especially at first glance** I'm trying I'm trying the girl stated her plea You are mistaken child I'm no judge but a referee *O please O please I just want to sleep, I won't be gone long just give me the key* **This game that we play is a habitual ritual, you mustn't need aid it can't be artificial** **I suggest you focus until the end is official, what you achieve is mutually beneficial** **You are the key child look inside real deep, tune out the noise and you'll find what you seek**
