He comes at night, as everyone begins to rest,
Because it is up to him to make their rest the best
That they have ever had, or at least pretty close.
He does this with a small special dose.
Of what? Something that's the last thing you'd guess.
It's weird, uncomfortable, and usually only makes a mess.
It's weird, uncomfortable, and usually only makes a mess.
It's sand, that's his "weapon" of choice,
And it works as it darkens the world and muffles every voice.
You'll give-in and start to drift away,
Only to wake-up, sometimes too soon, on a new day.
Who is this being, that silently creeps
Into houses, and is the reason everyone sleeps?
