I need some sleep

My body is here but my mind has drifted away.
It has been away for a long time, now. I am slouched on a chair typing this post because I want to, but the mind refuses to work properly.

See, this is what happened:I'm currently quite sleepy but I know for a fact that when I actually go to bed and try sleeping, I will not be able to do so. That has been a common occurence for the past few months. In the sleepiness, I think of this song which i quite like... aptly titled I need some Sleep by The Eels. It's a simple song with simple verses but i just wanted to check out the lyrics so that I can post it here. Copy and paste, you may say... ha ha ha.

Guess what? Thought that it was quite a strange occurence though that I could not find the lyrics to that song (the artist may not be popular... [here anyways], but it was part of the soundtrack for a movie that was) And then, I notice that I typed the artist as the ells and didn't even notice it. (at the bold underline area which asks "did you mean ....?"

The song: I need some sleep by The Ells (just kidding; The Eels)
I need some sleep (how so very true)
You can't go home like this (i'm at home already)
I try counting sheep (never worked... the brain gets more active)
But there's one I always miss (see, I told ya that the brain gets more active)
Everyone says I'm getting down to low (No one says so... but it may be true)
Everyone says, "You just gotta let it go" (No one has said that to me:))
You just gotta let it go (same as above)
You just gotta let it go (same as above)

I need some sleep time to put (too lazy to add comments here... )
the old horse down
I'm in too deep and the wheels (and here...)
keep spinning round
Everyone says I'm getting down to low
Everyone says, "You just gotta let it go"
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go ( I need some sleep)

Lifelessness... you just gotta live with it!
