Lyrics:

SLEEP, PLEASE TAKE ME NOW

Bits of conversation, like shards of glass
Cut into my consciousness and flicker past
Got only sympathy when I gave her the ring
Needing love so much I would do anything
Visions of a day from seven years ago
If I’d said and done the right thing,
where we’d be now, who knows?
This pillow’s like some kind of mental dental floss
Now I know I should have just told off my boss

Sleep, please take me now
Take back what’s real and let me dream....

Fly yawning open when I got my diploma
Fell too hard and gushed it to the lovely Ramona
Bills piling up, some came as a shock
Is someone messing with my front door lock?

Sleep, please take me now
Take back what’s real and let me dream somehow

Starting to fall, getting sleepy
Curtain falling over my eyes
Almost there, when all of a sudden
I’m jolted awake!
By a split-fingered fastball straight at my face
Hey Mr. Sandman, where the hell are you?
Can you counteract too much mountain dew?
