Maybe I should take medication-

Because I can’t find a way to stay alive without the thought of dancing knives

Maybe I need a little education

Train my brain to stay alive,

Coz I’m a little reluctant for the fight

Medicine always made it cathartic,

Calmed me down, but made me lethargic,

If only I knew how to bombard it.

.

�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�

.

Won’t you slip it under my skin?

Tuck it in a fold, to an alien dimension…

.

Train my brain to breathe again?

We’ve always been so good at playing pretend,

.

�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�

.

What good is a book when you can’t write your own?

What good is a home, when you feel like a ghost,

What’s there to call your own?

Whose hands are there for you to hold?

.

I’m out here in the cold,

Come here, give your coat,

I’m not where you can-…

.

roam-.

�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�

.

Wait!

Can’t you hear the trumpets blow?

It’s the end of all we know,

And all my secrets have come undone,

Can’t you read it; the prophecies have just begun.

.

�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�

.

All my bones have been exposed, you can see the pagan scribes,

All the scribbles, ancient tombs, they’re all written inside my eyes,

I dance with demons in the night, oh my!

.

�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�:*:�-�

.

Don’t you remember,

The 12th of December…

.

When you left me there to die?
