I am dreaming of sleeping
My head feels filled with helium
My knees feel I fear they will slip down
Slip off of me
Like pants without a belt
I am dreaming of sleeping
My body feels heavy, lost its equilibrium
My heart beats as though I had been running around
Running from sleep
From the exhaustion that is felt
I am dreaming of sleeping
My intellect is broadened by its own delirium
My thoughts get carried away unbound
Away they carry me
Away from the stupor that was dealt
I was dreaming of sleeping
I had begun to speak to the people of Elysium
Carrying on conversation with voices and musical sounds
Till I woke in bed
When my consciousness returned to where reality dwelt
