During the war I could sleep anywhere
Today, a full nights rest is rare
Fifty years ago I slept leaned up on a tree
I slept through rain, mosquitoes and artillery
I slept through the hot scorching sun
I think I even slept while on the run
I have slept at noon
And I have slept through a typhoon
But today is a different story
I have nightmares that are gory
I have insomnia with a roof over my head
Tucked into my own warm bed
I have a woman next to me who is a dear
But I still can't sleep for all of this fear
This must be why it's called POST Disorder
My reality sure is out of order
