1.   Lying on my back on a floor concrete
I stare at little bats as they flit
Across the night sky to where they meet
And talk about what they'll eat



2.  Asleep all day awake all night
Love the dark and hate the light
Creatures of darkness or so it seems
Will I see you in my dreams?



3.   My gaze shifts to the ****** moon
Half full to lose it soon
Wolves to herald your zenith
Vampires to glory beneath


4.   Dark it grows now I need a torch
I write as I stare at the church
A cry of prayer goes up
My well of ink's dried up
Getting to verse 3, you might get confused but 'losing it soon' simply means the '****** moon' losing its virginity

1.   Nocturne, Nocturne, mercy me
Your pull, your glow, has got me
In a fix, in a mess, can you see?
Are you good, good for me?


2.   In this bog of night
A mate, a friend I find
And now it's okay, it's perfectly fine
In this bog of nocturne, your hand in mine

1.  Shutting the world out is a sacred art
Open only to the strong at heart
Holding em off with a fake *** smile
A guess at your thoughts is off by a mile


2.  While like every other art its got its flaws
You're guaranteed protection from gaping jaws
Of 'friends' hell bent on making you lose
Your focus and leave you wiping their shoes



3.  So while you bravely try to guard your heart
In a box of fake smiles and weak 'I'm fines'
You'll find it grows cold like a box of ice
And leaves you spewing words that pierce like a dart.

I'm right behind you
Riding a bull
No really, I'm right beside you
On the stool
I caught an infection
At the pool
I went and spread it
At the school
I'm waiting outside
At your door
I'm lying inside
On your floor
Now I've got you smiling
Not for long
In a minute you'll be laughing
Like you've been stung
With a laughter potion
By Dr. Who
I'll have you laughing so hard
You'll need a day at the loo
Have a great day
Dont be April fooled
I'll be thinking of you
Until noon.
