[VERSE]

I’m layin on my back in bed

Facing up at the ceiling, right at the webs

Of the dead spiders, ideas popping up like wild flowers

Everywhere, blossoming in my nerve towers

Lot of potential the sympathetic drive

Blood circulates to my music hungry mind

Ideas all coming to me at the wrong time

Refrain from creation, to sleep I try

[HOOK]

My mind a machine but I try to shut it down

It’s time to sleep, but new ideas start to drown

Filled with thoughts many rhythms and lines

On my back to myself I lie

Sleep is more important, word to the wise

Shut the inspiration close my eyes

Pull out the plug before my mind fries

Refrain from creation, to sleep I try

[VERSE]

There's a drive inside that keeps me awake

My eyes wide open heart at a steady pace

No relaxation ‘til i pump out the passion

That's holding me back from taking a break

That i've been looking forward to waiting all day

Nothing else in the world could have had the same effect on

Me coffee would only last until the next time i peed

T minus five and I need some sleep

[HOOK]

My mind a machine, but I try to shut it down

It’s time to sleep, but new ideas start to drown

Filled with thoughts many rhythms and lines

On my back to myself I lie

Sleep is more important, word to the wise

Shut the inspiration close my eyes

Pull out the plug before my mind fries

Refrain from creation, to sleep I try
