Sometimes I get overwhelmed and I have to lie down.

And it's not that I'm tired; I just need to lie down for a while and let it all stop.

And sometimes then I fall asleep — but not because I'm tired; I think I just need that state where thought is better unhinged, unattached, a-logical, non-Euclidean... imperceptibly drifting away from all that makes sense, or needs to.
