Now I lay me down not to sleep
I just get tangled in the sheets
I swim in sweat three inches deep
I just lay back and claim defeat

Chapter read and lesson learned
I turned the lights off while she burned
So while she's three hundred degrees
I throw the sheets off and I freeze

Lids down, I count sheep
I count heartbeats
The only thing that counts is
that I won't sleep
I countdown, I look around

Who needs sleep?
well you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep?
tell me what's that for
Who needs sleep?
be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake
since the Second World War

My hands are locked up tight in fists
My mind is racing, filled with lists
of things to do and things I've done
Another sleepless night's begun

Lids down, I count sheep
I count heartbeats
The only thing that counts is
that I won't sleep
I countdown, I look around

Who needs sleep?
well you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep?
tell me what's that for
Who needs sleep?
be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake
since the Second World War

Who needs sleep?
well you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep?
tell me what's that for
Who needs sleep?
be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake
since the Second World War

There's so much joy in life,
so many pleasures all around
But the pleasure of insomnia
is one I've never found
With all life has to offer,
there's so much to be enjoyed
But the pleasures of insomnia
are ones I can't avoid

Lids down, I count sheep
I count heartbeats
The only thing that counts is
that I won't sleep
I countdown, I look around

Hala Hala Hala

Who needs sleep?
well you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep?
tell me what's that for
Who needs sleep?
be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake
since the Second World War

WHERES YOUR HEAD AT"

\Don’t let the walls
Cave in on you
We can’t live on, live on without you
Don’t let the walls
Cave in on you
We can’t live on, live on without you
Don’t let the walls
Cave in on you
You get what you give
That much is true
Don’t let the walls
Cave in on you
You turned the world away
From you

Where’s your head at"
Where’s your head at"
Where’s your head at"

You have found yourself
Trapped in this
Incomprehensible maze
Where’s your head at"
Where’s your head at"

You don’t make it easy on yourself
Where’s your head at"
Got to get
Got to get
Is whatcha get
Is whatcha get

Where’s your head at"

Where’s your head at"
Where’s your head at"
Where’s your head at"

Don’t let the walls
Cave in on you
We can’t live on, live on without you
Don’t let the walls
Cave in on you
We live on, live on without you
Where’s your head at"
Where’s your head at"
We can’t live on live on without you
We can’t live on live on without you

Granted I normally stay up late anyways. But this is kinda ridiculous. Finally deciding to turn in at 3 in the morning, then fighting to try and get to sleep for the next hour and a half. It has been said that I am nocturnal, and for the most part you'd be right. But this is stupid. I hate my brain. It has brought me nothing but grief.
