Nighttime—always beckoning The time to share the world with others no longer As they live through fantasy while we own reality Let's take a trip to the adrenaline fields To harvest artificial insomnia To let the body and mind run wild Leave us, Sleep You may have the weak To hold against their weak wills We're breaking the binds of sleep Banish the sandman Slaughter the sheep Repress adenosine To make every hour count Enjoy the ride under midnight skies Tomorrow never matters till the sun rises We bring our bodies to the cliffs of limit On the walk of delirium, night after night Inevitably, we collapse over the edge Falling from capacity As the sun climbs the horizon Heavy, then, become our eyes And we plunge into the deep seas of sleep Leave us, Sleep You may have the weak To hold against their weak wills We're breaking the binds of sleep Banish the sandman Slaughter the sheep Repress adenosine Tranquillity that stimulates the mind Places that awaken at night Lucubration, locked in a chamber Restless, insomnolent brethren Consumed by wanderlust Though it all may lead to early graves We tear through twilight anyway Our bodies have all of death to rest
