1984 - Insomniac Dreams lyrics

Verse 1 Another one of them nights, Insomniac Black quilt that covered the sky, under my eyes at the laundry mat Doing my dirty laundry on the corner of Long Beach and Willow My head be a stranger to the Pillow 1,2,3 A.M. usually when the day ends for most people but I still go I'm up late, all day and night though, light so many tight white grape cigarillos Distant from a dream or nightmare Concious, blank stare, unaware of a life where I can count sheep just to reach for sleep Or have a dream with my feet in the sand at the beach I'm thinkin What it'd be like to rest easy And all it'd take is one night to please me So I lay back, eyes wide, lights off, chillin Hopin that them dreams start spillin Insomniac Chorus I can't sleep (can't sleep) can't sleep at night Man all I wanna do is dream but I'm feelin the tight squeeze up on me Airin out all of my dirty laundry The life of an insomniac I can't sleep (can't sleep) can't sleep at night I can't sleep (can't sleep) can't sleep at night Man all I wanna do is dream but I'm feelin the tight squeeze up on me Airin out all of my dirty laundry Verse 2 I'm laying in a dim lit room with the radio low The speakers crackling its on a random radio show Not really listening, stuck in a state of mind, frozen Eyes wide open, that's debatable though Concious or unconscious, not sure of the status Often lost in half sleep walkin Knocked out, locked in, catch me on the mattress Zoned out, clouds blown out for the fact it's Hard for me to sleep now It got me trying to make a pillow out of weed clouds But in a minute Imma be out, when I breath out thats the last of it I need help when the ashes trickle down and blow off Left alone with out a bowl or anything to blow on so Imma go on with That laid back, eyes wide, lights off chillin Hopin that them dreams start spillin Insomniac Chorus I can't sleep (can't sleep) can't sleep at night Man all I wanna do is dream but I'm feelin the tight squeeze up on me Airin out all of my dirty laundry The life of an insomniac I can't sleep (can't sleep) can't sleep at night I can't sleep (can't sleep) can't sleep at night Man all I wanna do is dream but I'm feelin the tight squeeze up on me Airin out all of my dirty laundry
