How long would it take to die from lack of sleep?
Well, loss of sleep will not directly kill you, but problems that arose because of it can kill you.
When you do not get enough sleep, your immune system becomes compromised, your blood pressure can go up, you can develop diabetes or heart issues also. Your cognitive abilities will be compromised, ability to think straight, make decisions. Driving drowsy is just as bad as driving drunk. People with sleep disorders have been tested in many studies, and their reaction times and decision making were that of a person who was over the legal alcohol limit. So, not sleeping can be very dangerous.
A visit to your doctor, and subsequent appointment with a sleep specialist for a sleep study is the way to go. Good sleep habits, making your room comfortable and quiet, the right amount of exercise not too close to bed time. If you get too much exercise it will bring your core temperature up, and make it harder for you to sleep. Your body needs to cool down to sleep properly. there are many good web sites that cover good sleep habits, etc.
One of those is Web MD. another one is www.sleepfoundation.org
So, yes, lack of good quality sleep CAN kill you in a lot of different ways. It is no joke.

What waves does REM sleep have?
When awake, most people exhibit beta waves , the highest in frequency and lowest in amplitude, They are desynchronousthat is, the waves are not very consistent in their pattern. When relaxed most people exhibit alpha waves, which are slower, increase in amplitude and become more synchronous. The first stage of sleep is characterized by theta waves, which are even slower in frequency and greater in amplitude than alpha waves. Stages 1 and 2 are relatively "light" stages of sleep. A sleeper passes from the theta waves of stage 1 and 2, to the delta waves of stage 3 and 4. Delta waves are the slowest and highest amplitude brain waves. This is the deepest stage of the sleep cycle.
The next stage is REM sleep, a sleepers brain waves demonstrate characteristics that are similar to waking sleep, a combination of alpha, beta, and desynchronous waves. This is the stage of sleep most associated with dreaming.
In a normal night's sleep, a sleeper begins in stage 1, moves down through the stages, to stage 4, then back up through the stages, with the exception that stage 1 is replaced by REM, then the sleeper goes back down through the stages again. One cycle, from stage 1 to REM takes approximately ninety minutes. This cycle is repeated throughout the night, with the length of REM periods increasing, and the length of delta sleep decreasing, until during the last few cycles there is no delta sleep at all.

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) or Willis-Ekbom disease is a neurological disorder characterized by an irresistible urge to move one's body to stop uncomfortable or odd sensations.[1] It most commonly affects the legs, but can affect the arms, torso, and even phantom limbs.[2] Moving the affected body part modulates the sensations, providing temporary relief.
RLS sensations could be pain, an aching, an itching or tickling in the muscles, like "an itch you can't scratch" or an unpleasant "tickle that won't stop", or even a "crawling" feeling. The sensations typically begin or intensify during quiet wakefulness, such as when relaxing, reading, studying, or trying to sleep.[3] In addition, most individuals with RLS have limb jerking during sleep, which is an objective physiologic marker of the disorder and is associated with sleep disruption.[4] Some controversy surrounds the marketing of drug treatments for RLS. It is a "spectrum" disease with some people experiencing only a minor annoyance and others experiencing major disruption of sleep and significant impairments in quality of life
