Tell me quickly
This is not real
And I but sleep
So wake me
Throw cold water on my face
Let me realize
This is only a nightmare
Sent by jealous demons
Who envy our love
This cannot be real
And yet... if I be awake
Then let me sleep
Sleep hard and long
And never wake
Until this anguish is gone
Until that day comes
Just let me sleep

Pepper - sounds like a problem or whatever I have at times, can't sleep that is. Perhaps there is so much on ones mind, or just can't seem to wind down, or something. Perhaps tonight will be a sleep night...
