that sick to the stomach feeling
from lack of sleep
all over my body it's starting
to creep
yet all the warning signs i continue
to ignore
'cause what it comes down to is
sleeping's a bore
though dreaming is often intriguing
and fun
i've always felt that something more
could be done
while i lie on my back
and the hours fly past
waking up to a workload that will surely
bust my ass
yet at the same time i admit
i procrastinate all day
constantly wondering which words i want to say
that will properly explain
why pleasure exists in pain
but then i fall asleep
