Narcolepsy

I'm on a train But there's no one at the helm And there's a demon in my brain Who starts to overwhelm-whelm-whelm-whelm-whelm And there it goes My last chance for peace You lay me down But I get no release And I say I I try to keep awake I try to swim beneath I try to keep awake but I I can feel this narcolepsy slide Into another nightmare And there's a demon in my head who starts to play A nightmare tape loop of what went wrong yesterday And I hold my breath Till it's more than I can take and I close my eyes and dream that I'm awake I try to keep awake I try to keep awake I try to keep awake but I I can feel this narcolepsy slide Into another nightmare I read dead Russian authors volumes at a time I wrote everything down except what's on my mind 'Cause my greatest fear is the sucking sound And then I know I never get back out And there's a bone in my hand that connects to a drink In a crowded room where the glasses clink And I'll buy you a beer and we'll drink it deep Because That keeps me from falling asleep I said how'd you like to be alone and drowning? How'd you like to be alone and drowning? How'd you like to be alone and drowning How'd you like to be alone and drowning Still I find this narcolepsy slide, slide Into another nightmare Keep awake Keep awake Keep awake And I can feel this narcolepsy Slide
