   Lyrics:
 
   Verse 1
   Reading magazines and counting sheep to pass the time away
   Hoping that tomorrow's gonna bring a smile back home again
   Images of palm trees sway in the wind on south beach
   Thinking back to better days, summer rays, the Everglades in June
 
   Bridge
   My brain, my poor brain
   My brain, my poor brain
 
   CHORUS
   Drinking myself to sleep again
   Now these pills to keep me sane
   Drinking myself to sleep again
   Insomnia
 
   Verse 2
   Flying high in golden skies, I'm flicking channels in my mind
   Finding my utopia a different chapter in a book
   Thinking back to younger days as I escape in Coopers break
   Takes me back to eighty-four, the future's knocking at my door
 
   My brain, my poor brain
   My brain, my poor brain
 
   CHORUS X2
 
   Middle 8
   Turning off the switch inside me
   Leaving all the stress behind me
   Flying over streets and houses
   Passing over, no-one dying
   Takes me back to eighty-four
   The future's knocking at my door
 
   My brain, my poor brain
   My brain, my poor brain
 
   CHORUS X3
X
