Cramp and Consequence

All curled up, in the dark I trace [Pre-chorus] the dreams I'm 'bout to chase But then, a twitch I cannot face [Verse] A sudden snap, and I'm wide awake A pain so sharp, make no mistake It's stealing sleep, it's got me aching I don't need sleep, I need relief [Bridge] Just feel that sudden jolt I miss the rest and the peace, what you do to me When you grip me, you take control I'd rather limp all night than feel this agony I hate this aching fight Tossin' in my bed, there's fire in my leg A cramp that shot so fierce, it's like a dark plague Twistin', turnin' in a fit, can't get no release This pain's a ruthless beast, won't let me sleep in peace [Chorus] Oh, cramp in the night, you're such a wicked plight A punk-rock twist, my limb's in the spotlight Can't believe this shock, a quake in my backside This ain't no laughing stock, it hits like a rough tide Who knew cheeks could lock, a pain so bona fide Got me on the clock, counting till it subsides [Verse] In the witching hour's hold, my lower half's betraying A tale of woe unfolds, no sleep, just silent praying As dawn breaks clear, the ache starts fading Muscle's mercy, at last persuading Noon's sun high, and I survived the curse Standin' up, I finally disperse [Verse] Blessed stretch, I'm free from the bind Letting go of the pain left behind
