Another good answer but not the right one

[sstimson]

Spoiler:

Got two possible answers

1) A dead body ( If you think of a coffin as a bed)

2) Flowers ( A bed of roses)

Both not the ones I'm looking for and technically some flowers do go to sleep at night.

Need a hint? There are a few possibilities for a vague riddle like this one.

[M.Holmes]

Yeah, I think you should add in a hint or expand the riddle with a few more descriptive sentences since there's just tons of possibilities as it is (i.e. Pillow, sheets, dust, flowers, an insomniac, a corpse, rocks, water, seashells, etc.).

Ok update to riddle then
What lies on a bed but never wakes up?
People sometimes go there to do some sports
Usually I'm fresh
I helped Egyptians live many years ago

I hope this covers specifically what the answer is, if not I'll just post a really obvious hint

Well i thought up an idea for a murder mystery so here ya go:

Btw it's probably better you have some knowledge of science since it'll help out a lot on what the method was

Mouri Kogorou was called in to assist in a case of a strange death. After the formal greetings with inspector Megure, he was given the facts of the case.

Daniel Caramze (the name is completely made up) was dead in his room. Marks of torture lay all over him, countless long thick iron nails have been buried into his legs (at least 30 of the nails have scratched the femur from all sides bottom to top on both femurs), arms and chest, his front side body and face was burnt leaving him unrecognizable. An autopsy was still possible as the internal body were not too damaged. On the underside of the seat of the wheelchair burnt marks were everywhere except 4 square places around the middle.

He was a disabled man from waist below according to the medical records and sleeping pill traces was found inside him.
Large nails were caught in between the gaps in the wheels so you couldn't move the wheelchair from the center of the room.

"Seems like quite a mad murderer we have here." muttered Kogorou "I assume he died of blood loss?"

"That's the problem" Megure stared hard at Kogorou eyes "We know who killed him but some of the facts just don't add up. According to our autopsy report he died of dehydration, so we assumed naturally that he was tied up and the criminal later collected the rope when he died from dehydration."
Megure gave a heavy sigh.
"But that's not the case, no rope marks or any of that kind were found. We also checked the security footage on the hallway outside to see if the criminal stayed in the room to keep and eye on him but he only visited twice with a 1 week interval."

"Perhaps the victim couldn't move because of the various injuries to him?" suggested Kogorou.

"Another strange point. All damage done to the victim except for the nails in the leg was done AFTER death. So that means the victim's hands was free, he could have crawled out of his wheelchair and gotten help yet he didn't, something stopped him and until we have a complete case the murderer will escape free due to lack of evidence."
"But isn't there anything? Any clue or such?" said Kogorou,

"There is one thing. The first time he came he carried 5 plastic boxes.
The second time the killer came to visit, he brought about the size of an a4 sheet of paper size metal box, a blowtorch and well a bottle of water"

Oh and here's a link to what the wheelchair normally looks like if you need it

So the questions you need to answer are:
What was the method that prevented Daniel from moving.
What was the purpose of all the damage done to him after death
What was the purpose of the metal box, blowtorch, bottle of water and sleeping pills

Any questions feel free to ask in pm

A crazy theory

Spoiler:

The victim might have been mummy wrapped from the waist up. This would be like tied up, but without the rope burns.
After the victim was dead, the wrapping was burned away
