Let a dog's barking in the distance lull me to sleep. Let the fading whizz of a plane lull me to sleep. A lizard chirps in. Small and sudden, it will not jolt me. Let it lull me to sleep. Let me not count the ticking of the clock. It will keep me awake. Let it lull me to sleep. I close my eyes and speak in my mind: Please let me sleep.

Awake
Let a dog's barking in the distance lull me to sleep. Let the fading whizz of a plane lull me to sleep. A lizard chirps in. Small and sudden, it will not jolt me. Let it lull me to sleep. Let me not count the ticking of the clock. It will keep me awake. Let it lull me to sleep. I close my eyes and speak in my mind: Please let me sleep.
