Sleep inertia is a physiological state characterised by a decline in motor dexterity and a subjective feeling of grogginess immediately following an abrupt awakening. The impaired alertness may interfere with the ability to perform mental or physical tasks. Sleep inertia can also refer to the tendency of a person wanting to return to sleep.
Sleep inertia occurs normally after awakening. Upon awakening in the morning, subjective alertness and mental performance are significantly impaired. Morning sleep inertia may take several hours to dissipate. In the majority of cases, morning sleep inertia is experienced for 15 to 30 minutes after waking.
Studies by the Human Factors Division at NASA Ames Research Center have shown that a variety of factors influence the severity and duration of sleep inertia. These include:

It's been a long day
A long day and I'm tired
It's been a long day
And now it's over, I'm on my way home
Yes, I'm on my way home
The river still
And on my way home
I thought of the time that had passed
All alone on way home
And all I could think of were times gone by
Yes, the times gone by
Soon we're gone
Sometimes the river runs high
Sometimes the river runs low
Sometimes the river runs fast
Sometimes the river runs slow
Sweat's pouring down
Roll up my sleeves; rub my eyes
Avoid the shortcut through the tall trees
Take the long way home
Take the long way home
Soon you're gone
Sometimes the river runs high
Sometimes the river runs low
Sometimes the river runs fast
Sometimes the river runs slow
It's been a long day
A long day and I'm tired
It's been a long day
And now it's over, I'm on my way home
Yes, I'm on my way home
