The song "How Can You Sleep?" has a long history for me. I've had versions of the song out on platforms like SoundCloud for over five years. The theme is pointing a sharp finger at police and authority in America that make the lives of some people of color a living hell. I originally wrote it at the height of the Black Lives Matter movement. It might be too on-the-nose, but I stand by every word in it.

I'm not a huge fan of my voice. So when it came time to start putting my music out on major platforms I became an instrumentalist. So, two years ago I reworked it as a piano and cello instrumental and tacked it onto my Collisions In The Dark album. It has a very different feel as a piano/orchestra instrumental, but my heart has always been with the original intent.

Anyways, here it is.

How Can You Sleep?
By Gizz Van Buskirk
words and music by Mike Damrath

How can you sleep?
When you know you’re the reason they can’t 
Leave their door 
Wondering what they’ll will be mistaken for

How can you sleep?
Safe secure inside your simple world
Aware of the storm
So scared to risk your sure and shady platform

Creating and instilling fear
Blue lights in the rear view mirror
Bright knuckles on a steering wheel 
A sister’s sight of a mother’s tear


How can you sleep?
Wise your hide has eased you on your way
Can't you see
A higher tide takes all her ships to sea


How can you sleep?
Tell me how can you sleep?
How can you sleep?
I’m wondering how you can sleep?

The U.S. House of Representatives considers H.R.410, the Alaska Native Vietnam Era Veterans Land Allotment Extension Act of 2025, on July 14, 2025.

H.R.410 extends the Alaska Native Vietnam-Era Veterans Land Allotment Program for another five years to ensure the Bureau of Land Management can reach out to Alaska Native veterans who are entitled to land selections.

Following consideration, the House approved H.R.410 under a suspension of the rules.

The bill would still need to be approved by the U.S. Senate before it can be signed into law.
