Itchy

How can an itch change a man so much? Maybe its not an itch. Only so much torture can a man's heart take... Before he snaps...

The bugs,

They crawl beneath my skin.

Little legs,

Patting about, I can't take it.

I could tear it off,

I can't take it.

Please,

Just take it off.

All the little spots,

They need my attention,

But I can't reach with my fingers.

What is it in his pocketses, precious?

I flip the switch to reveal the blade,

Ready to open.

Aaaaaahhhhh...

Sweet relief...

Well I don't know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain't right,
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.

Reminiscent of the torture scene from Reservoir Dogs?
