LYRICS:

Another vivid daydream where I could get to sleep,
awakened in a nightmare; when will I get to rest in peace?
Hallucinations from paralysis preventing me;
my hearts almost exploding as I attempt to breathe.
Chest pumping, my head is thumping, I'm sweating bullets,
vessel numbing but senses flood in as I prepare for nothing.
Totally helpless to this omen; swear I felt it touching?
Do I dare open my eyes & attempt at looking?
Maybe God's preparing me for my death?
Maybe it's a sign when I'm stuck to believe in my strength.
Teaching us to never freeze when we're perceiving a threat,
or maybe I'm just needing help but cannot speak it direct?
It's commonplace - man this happens all of the time,
hoping this time I see no demons but the holy divine.
Flicker my lids; dark shadows with a moment of light,
just when I think I'm approaching demise I open my eyes.

It's sleep paralysis -
why am I even having this?
Head to the doctor cos it's needing some analysis.
Scared of sleep but deprivation seems the catalyst;
yeah - do you suffer sleep paralysis?
Why am I even having this?
Head to the doctor cos it's needing some analysis.
Scared of sleep but deprivation seems the catalyst;
yeah - do you suffer sleep paralysis?

Think I need to sleep, I don't know if I'm awake;
don't even know what's real, I don't even know what's fake.

Made my bed from all the sleepless nights,
a real rest's a bigger dream than global equal rights.
As I wake up from this coma it's not even light,
I creep the night & read or write then leave to get my P's in time.
I'm needing peace of mind; so I'll sleep when I'm dead,
dark circles, deeper lines than the sixteen's in my head.
N' with these problems I seem inclined to be keeping suppressed
I think I'm doing more damage not getting these demons off my chest.
Bipolar sleeping pattern, intoxicated with green I'm wrapping,
smoking seems to increase the panic with complications from breathing rapid.
But it seems I need that plant, it's not possible sleeping without it,
all this insomnia partly responsible for my recent scowling.
I know in life you need it, I just hope tonight
prescriptions docs proposing might just kill me off before this smoking might.
Can't go a night without the spirits so it's no surprise,
I see a blurry version of them when I close my eyes, it's sleep paralysis...

It's sleep paralysis -
why am I even having this?
Head to the doctor cos it's needing some analysis.
Scared of sleep but deprivation seems the catalyst;
yeah - do you suffer sleep paralysis?
Why am I even having this?
Head to the doctor cos it's needing some analysis.
Scared of sleep but deprivation seems the catalyst;
yeah - do you suffer sleep paralysis?

Think I need to sleep, I don't know if I'm awake;
don't even know what's real, I don't even know what's fake.
