Sweet Dream

4:55, everybody else is snoring My heavy eyes, I can never seem to close 'em My running mind, just can't catch it when it's going Is it late at night or is it early in the morning? Only So many sheep a girl can count Patchouli candles burning out I try to meditate it all away but, damn it, it's too quiet now Daylight helps distract my head Monsters hide under my bed They bother me with all kinds of things Like, "Where do I go when I'm dead?" Is it too much to ask for a sweet dream? Need a step back from my feelings Life is not so bad when I'm sleeping Is it too much to ask, too much to ask for a Sweet dream For a, sweet dream 6:58, sun's peaking through the curtains I drift away, suddenly the wheels are turning Songs are in my head, scary thoughts begin to worsen Once I'm wide awake, it's too hard to reverse it Chirping, birds are flying 'round my house Patchouli candles burning out I try to meditate it all away but, damn it, it's too quiet now Daylight helps distract my head Monsters hide under my bed They bother me with all kinds of things Like that one stupid thing I said Is it too much to ask for a sweet dream? Need a step back from my feelings Life is not so bad when I'm sleeping Is it too much to ask, too much to ask for a Sweet dream For a, sweet dream For a, sweet dream For a, sweet dream Sandman, can you visit me? All I want is a sweet dream 8:31, I'm slurring every word now I pray this cold coffee helps me with the rebound How does everybody I know know how to sleep sound? When we're all a mess I guess the only way out is a Sweet dream (sweet dream, sweet dream) Is a, sweet dream (ah-ah) Sweet dream (oh, yeah) Is a, sweet dream (yeah)
