Another Sleepless Night

It's official. I've thoroughly fucked up my sleeping schedule. Even after I rest, I feel exhausted. It's a trap, see. If I don't sleep, it's unhealthy (insomnia ain't no good for my mood). If I do sleep, I'm still feeling drained after 12 hours of weird-zombie-apocalyptic-dreams and scenarios I'm terrified will transpire. All I can do is listen to slow and steady Okkervil River songs to coax me to bed in hopes waking won't feel as bad as when I collapsed. I for one think Will Sheff is a brilliant singer/songwriter. His lyrics are quite powerful and leave a mark on your thoughts after you finish listening. Recently, I've been listening to "Love to a monster". I myself haven't had experience with nasty breakups (I've been in love and have had my heart broken, but not quite the way Sheff is describing it in the song). I really love the song not because of how emotional it is, but because the lyrics are just so beautiful. Sheff has such a way with words (it's like poetry, the kind I wish I could write). So, here's to you Will Sheff. Now, if only I could sleep...
