  • A song about my inability to get to sleep at night due to moments of creative inspiration, stress about things I have to do, the sense of impending doom at the state of the world or all of the above!
    After the success of the short video of this song that I uploaded a few weeks ago as part of my A Song A Week project, I thought it deserved a full version!
    Piano by Tom Carradine
    Guitar by Adam Pitt
    Mixed and mastered by Lee Head
    Filmed at The Dorothy Pax in Sheffield on 07/07/24 by

    I'm glad I don't have insomnia. I fall right to sleep. Then the cat wakes me up by tapdancing on my head, but I have to pee anyway so I do that and get back into bed and then I start to drift off to sleep but the arthritis in my lower back is killing me so I spend 40 minutes tossing and turning before I fall back to sleep but then the cat starts meowing so I spend 10 minutes explaining to her that 3am is not the time for karaoke and then I drift off to sleep again but then my husband's snoring wakes me up so I find my headphones and spend 10 minutes looking for something on youtube that will drown out the noise and then I fall asleep again only to have a sleep paralysis dream for the 6th time this week (it's Thursday) so I spend approximately 15 eternities trying to wake up from the sleep paralysis dream when the cat starts meowing again and that wakes me up (thank Christ) and then I sit up for 20 minutes petting the cat and just generally staring into that void you mentioned and then I fall back to sleep only to have a non-paralysis nightmare about being chased by velociraptors (the movie kind) so I wake up screaming which stops the husband's snoring, but sets off the cat again so we all settle back down after about 20 minutes and I fall back to sleep and then shortly afterwards my bladder wakes me up again and by then it's 7 am and time to get up. But, yeah, I fall right to sleep. No problem.

    I just resort to turning the tv on to a tv show tht i have seen mult time before, persons must have a soothing voice, and the volume is really low. That has my mind concentrate on something else. I get tired of redoing my past marriage, telling off childhood bullies, etc… night after night. Those bastards just keep coming at me!

    Oh, yeah. Been there. Know literally EVERYTHING about this!
    To the point I'm watching this because of just this reason.

    Well worth the wait! I'm currently part way through a programme designed to help improve/ fix your sleep so it's quite apt. I hope the song doesn't jump into my head during the few hours I'm allowed to be in bed though!

    Oh hey, the ASD/ADHD experience! It's gotten better for me since I got a script for melatonin but I still have way too many nights like this.

    I predict the song is going to be running through my mind at 3:00 a.m.
