Deep in the bosom of the gentle night.
Is when I search for the light.
Pick up my pen and start to write.
I struggle, fight dark forces.
In the clear moon light
Without fear... insomnia
I can't get no sleep.
I used to worry, thought I was goin' mad in a hurry
Gettin' stress, makin' excess mess in darkness
No electricity, something's all over me, greasy.
Insomnia please release me and let me dream of
Makin' mad love to my girl on the heath.
Tearin' off tights with my teeth.
But there's no release, no peace.
I toss and turn without cease.
Like a curse, open my eyes and rise like yeast
At least a couple of weeks.
Since I last slept, kept takin' sleepers.
But now I keep myself pepped.
Deeper still, that night I write by candle light
I find insight, fundamental movement, uh.
So when it's back this insomniac take an original tack
Keep the beast in my nature under ceaseless attack.
I gets no sleep.
I can't get no sleep.
I can't get no sleep.
I can't get no sleep.
I need to sleep, although I get no sleep.
I need to sleep, although I get no sleep.
