I've been sinking in quicksand for something like six hours now But the sand man ain't coming to put me out Silence surrounds me while something inside me screams out I'm chained to this bed while my mind races around As the hours tick by I put a hold on my dreams Creating new numbers to keep track of the sheep All I ever pray for is sleep Give me that oh Lord and I swear my soul will be yours to keep, so Will you tell me a story? Will you sing me a song? Will you find me a cure for this insomnia? I keep my feet between the sheets 'cause I don't know what's underneath but I would welcome nightmares just to know I remember how to dream My imagination keeps me guessing What's under my bed? Why's that light on up in the attic? Is this all in my head? So I start reading a bedtime story but some parts seem pretty absurd Now I'm not praying for my prayers to be answered. I'm just praying for my prayers to be heard I've been given everything I could ever want except a decent night of sleep Give me that oh Lord, and I swear my soul will be yours to keep, so Will you tell me a story? Will you sing me a song? Will you find me a cure for this insomnia? I keep my feet between the sheets cuz I don't know what's underneath but I would welcome nightmares just to know I remember how to dream I keep my head rested on this pillow and I pull my blinds down to the window sill Oh, I have been fighting to let let the night in But it can't seem to get past my window I can feel my mind dull and my body weaken another sleepless week and a wasted weekend The dark of night brings out my secrets That I'm scared of the things that I believe in I can feel my mind dull and my body weaken another sleepless week and a wasted weekend The dark of night brings out my secrets I'm scared of these things that I believe in I can feel my mind dull and my body weaken another sleepless week and a wasted weekend The dark of night brings out my secrets I'm scared of the things I don't believe in, so Will you tell me a story? Will you sing me a psalm? Can you find me a cure for this insomnia? I keep my feet between the sheets cuz I don't know what's underneath but I would welcome nightmares just to know I remember how to dream I keep my head rested on this pillow and I pull my blinds down to the window sill Oh, I have been fighting to let let the night in But it can't seem to get past my window This is a nightmare This is a nightmare I hope This is a nightmare This is a nightmare I hope This is a nightmare I hope This is a nightmare and it's about time I wake up
