Nodding Off

Sleepy eyes don't compromise When Sandman makes his call Eyelids droop and slowly close As head begins to fall Try to fight fatigue at night But you will not succeed Dreams demand their place in line And we must all take heed So close your eyes and drift away In slumbers soft embrace The stars above will stand their guard So you can sleep in peace Rockman

Hi Randy thanks for the help would you mind writing me a soup mail and "fixing" the cadence so I can see it in my verse Limbs Akimbo?
