Guilt

I wake up in the morning, can still remember the screaming
Another man is dead
Think about life if it has a meaning
Police outside my door watching me every single day
Thinking about it gives me the thrills
Always have something to say
"You killer!"
"You monster!"
"Son of a bitch!"
I never wanted this
Them looking at me like a witch
"You're crazy"
"You psycho"
"Serial killer"
I feel bad for him,
I didn't mean to kill Mr.Miller
I tried to convince them that he is not dead
I even told his wife,
"He's inside my head."
"Just talking"
"Not leaving"
"Not screaming"
"Not grieving"
He only asks questions
That have no end
Saying,
"Why did you kill me, your only friend?"
He was my neighbor
My friend
That wasn't scared
If his life might end
He came to help me
That was the day he died
I resisted temptation
Believe me I tried
I wanted to make it quick so he had no pain
Curiosity wanted me to see the inside of his brain
He knew what was coming
But he just turned around
Looked me in the eyes
With a stare so profound
I choked him with a quilt
Wrapped it around his head
Now it is killing me with guilt
Now that my only friend is dead
Now at my home with cameras all around
Can never leave my home
Watching me with hounds
Now all I do is sit and breathe
Can never visit family
Nor can they visit me
I can never go back
To my life before
Now a dead police officer
On my kitchen floor
I never wanted this
Please someone help
Someone give me a sign of bliss
Police walk in
See what I've done
They know I can't stop
So they take out their gun
They point at my head
Say, "You killer, you're dead!"
He pulls the trigger but I feel no pain
I look at the floor with a hole through my brain
I see a pile of bodies
Dead corpses I built
There's no escaping with death
Can't run away from guilt
