oversleeping
Alarm clock's failure
Oversleeping is sleeping longer than intended or beyond a set time.
It usually implies missing something—an alarm, an appointment, work: I overslept and missed my flight.
The word can also describe sleeping more than is healthy or necessary: Oversleeping on weekends throws off your schedule.
