Can you hear, can you hear?
Those screams inside my head.
I just might, I just might
Already be dead.
                               Can you feel, can you feel?
Fingers brush my skin.
And I can, and I can
Feel them closing in.
                              Can you taste, can you taste?
Dusty, cloying smog.
And I can't, and I can't
Taste anything.
                              Can you smell, can you smell?
Decay and rotting flesh.
Yes I know, yes I know
It doesn't smell very fresh.
                              Can you see, can you see?
The shadows creep closer to me.
Someone help, someone help
They've come to make me bleed.
