"You want me to be a tragic backdrop

So you can appear to be illuminated,

So that people can say

'Wow, isn't he so terribly brave to love a girl who is so obviously sad?'

You think I'll be the dark sky

So you can be the star?

I'll swallow you whole."



"Mary had a little lamb

Whos heart was black as coal

It crept into her room one night

And ate her fucking soul"



"That beyond the door And into the hall

This is the house of No one at all

No one who breathed, nor laughed, nor ate

Nor said 'I Love' Nor said 'I Hate'

Yet something walked along the stair

Something that was, And wasn't there"



"Fear is rushing through my body

My heart is freezing of despair

Cold shivers down my spine

Trying to wake up, desperately

This has to stop, I can't take it

Breathing fast and shallow

Trying to keep it all together

Agitation is breaking my spirit

Images rushing by

I have to get out of this

Can't take this much longer

My mind switched to standby

A nightmare so horrifying

Fear and pain so deep

I have to wake up!

Except....

My eyes are wide open and I'm not asleep"
