Morpheus

It's two a.m., but I'm still wide awake Can't get to sleep and now my head aches The tap tap tapping on my nervous system Messes about with my circadian rhythm Now three a.m., and I'm still not asleep Listened to music and I've tried counting sheep Hormone of darkness won't you please visit me And kindly rid me of this anxiety But then Suddenly, I hear the sound of nocturnal footsteps Approaching me, above my bed a tall winged silhouette Morpheus; ruler of my dreams, hypnotic seducer Morpheus; phantom spirit, night time's psychic transducer He covers me with his gossamer wings It's time my hallucination begins He carries me to a cave underground Somewhere I can feel safe and sound He signals to me as I take a deep breath And jump into the river of unconsciousness A field of poppies with petals bright red Is where I lie down and rest my tired head Rest my tired head In an opium bed It's four a.m., as I drift off to sleep My pulse slows down to a regular beat Manipulation of my psychology Has an effect on my, biology And then Suddenly, I hear the sound of nocturnal footsteps Approaching me, above my bed a tall winged silhouette Morpheus; ruler of my dreams, hypnotic seducer Morpheus; phantom spirit, night time's psychic transducer Lucidity Takes control over me
