A dreamy, atmospheric song about insomnia and depression

Lyrics
Tell me what you want
Don't make believe I don't need this
I need this that's what I'm telling you
And even little eyelids can blot out the whole world
Though it brings me down
Sometimes like this I want them to

Read for me the list of things I should have done
I'll fret about them one by one
In my solitude
And even as I try to smother my own brain
While the peace I seek takes a midnight train
And I'm left behind, again

Don't worry...

In just another few hours
The sun comes back again
Relax, let go, just drift away
And in a moment you'll be
Emerging from the black again
Ready for another chance
To waste the day

a really lush and lazy wonderful pastoral wandering puddle of dreams. Love the vocal build at the end and the sparse instrumentation. Welcome to MJ, you have a great future. I can seeeee it.
