Deep in the bosom of the gentle night
Is when I search for the light
Pick up my pen and start to write
I struggle, fight dark forces
In the clear moon light
Without fear... insomnia
I can't get no sleep
I used to worry, thought I was goin' mad in a hurry
Gettin' stress, makin' excess mess in darkness
No electricity, something's all over me, greasy
Insomnia please release me and let me dream of
Makin' mad love to my girl on the heath
Tearin' off tights with my teeth
But there's no release, no peace
I toss and turn without cease
Like a curse, open my eyes and rise like yeast
At least a couple of weeks
Since I last slept, kept takin' sleepers
But now I keep myself pepped
Deeper still, that night I write by candle light
I find insight, fundamental movement, uh
So when it's back this insomniac take an original tack
Keep the beast in my nature under ceaseless attack
I gets no sleep
I can't get no sleep
I can't get no sleep
I can't get no sleep
I need to sleep, although I get no sleep
I need to sleep, although I get no sleep

I've learned to go with the flow - I've given up trying to force myself to sleep. If I wake now I listen to music, read or log on to fab, usually within 30 minutes I'm asleep again.......probably to wake up again a couple of hours later.
The upshot is don't fight it xx |

I feel your pain, I cant remember the last time I had a full nights sleep.
Had about 2 hours last night and I'm doing 12 hour shifts today and tomorrow.
I hope you get some shut eye soon 
Happy Saturday. xx |

I feel all your pain.
You need to try different relaxation techniques, switch off electronics before going bed, don't drink anything within 2 hours of sleeping etc.
Oh and having a naughty play before bed may help too  |

This is what i started doing. Although if i'm still tired sometimes i'll just lie there and carry on resting. |

And the thing is they only work for a certain length of time.
If I wake up early hours - I just do something soft, reading, Internet and so on. It really is best not to fight it, then your body clock adjusts accordingly and settles into a pattern that suits you.
I have to be up at five in the mornings - this works for me somehow |
