Calling of Sleep

Bury me...in a cloud of feathers and pillows Smother me...in a dozen blankets soft as sheep wool Bury me, smother me back to sleep Lullaby me, hypnotize me please something put me back to sleep to start this day over again, at least in my own eyes Sad songs have dictated my morning nudging me to always remember, always reflect when I just wish to forget, when I just want to move on The eye of the storm is ever so far away but it feels so close by how many knots contort in my stomach twisting tighter and tighter and here I thought it would be months before I sank so low again guess I was unfortunately wrong Sixth sense, stop terrorizing me I know something is wrong I heard it in a song yet I don't care at all... I just don't care at all... I just want to sleep... I just want to sleep... I just want to sleep...
