Overkill...

Hello, been a bit busy with life, and so the time for writing has been reduced, time and patience, but who is keeping track anyway.
Today gave another lecture, this one was on short notice and I simply did the slides I was given. It was fine since it was a lecture to prepare the students for the lab demonstrations, which I normally do :P. I must say that it is funny how much you can say when you know a lot about a topic, I was expecting the class to be half an hour, but I managed to talk for a full hour, and I started making it short when I realized the time I was taking.
But this is not a post about the class, it is about my nights, more on the falling asleep part. I am one of those people that struggles sometimes to fall asleep, but if I do waking up is the problem. But sometimes I have periods that I wake up during the night all the time, so bad sleep, and also with troubles getting to sleep. The funny thing is in the morning I can sleep with nothing disturbing me. I guess I am really a night person. I always say I that I am, no problems postponing going to sleep, problems waking up :P. Nevertheless this is a song that comes to mind in these sleepless times, hope you enjoy it as I do, and hopefully help you realize when you are overkilling yourself about stuff. For me it helps to realize, but doesn't really help to stop it, so if you find that remedy let me know.



I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know I'll be alright
Perhaps it's just imagination

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away

Alone between the sheets
Only brings exasperation
It's time to walk the streets
Smell the desperation

At least there's pretty lights
And though there's little variation
It nullifies the night from overkill

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Come back another day

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know I'll be alright
It's just overkill

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Ghosts appear and fade away
Ghosts appear and fade away
