Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray my sanity to keep.
For if some peace I do not find
I fear I may just lose my mind.
I pray I find a little quiet
away from the family riot.
May I have a moment and not have to think
about what he’s stuffing down the sink.
Or what outrageous tales he’s told
and what stolen treasures his pockets hold.
Some peaceful moments for goodness sake
(Did I just hear a window break?)
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray my sanity to keep
But as I look around, I know
I must have lost it long ago!
