Why can't I sleep?
All I want to do is sleep.
I lay awake in the bed,
Thinking of everything but sleep.
I try to clear my mind,
So that I might drift into a dream state.

I just get restless,
Unable to lay still.
I want to do something,
But I have no energy.
I need rest,
Just can not sleep.

I start to count sheep.
After a while the sheep
Are sleeping,
Everything gets to sleep
But me.
