Insomnia Song from Eyeball Planet by Mother Iguana

no sleep
I try
my thoughts do not subside
taken by the tide
they raise the waves I ride
and leave me stranded on the wrong side

I long to call it a day
but I can't seem to find the way
my body is trapped halfway
my dreams await me deep in outer space
but I cannot find the exit from this place
I'll learn to wait however long it takes

no sleep
I roll around
my system won't shut down
the signal doesn't stop
the satellite goes spinning like a top
it slows but does not drop
the bed rejects my bones
I lie awake alone
stranded on a planet of my own

no sleep
I tried
my mind is completely deeply fried
it's getting light outside

another day draws near
behold the glow of the celestial sphere
we're all stranded here inside
and running out of time

go to sleep
where do you hide
why must I be denied
my head is laid down upon the line
how come I'm stranded on the wrong side
