Down the run And past her smoking fuse Behind the door Where the blood cut loose In the dark Where my name’s not used Up the stairs And the ridged knife No one cares I should take my life In the chair Boiling in my strife Down the run And past her smoking fuse Behind the door Where my blood cut loose In the dark Where my name’s not used A liar Lying In the Wait A music Box To confiscate No one knew She was Screaming No one stirred In the silent night The snow fell In the sinkhole light The white glare And the golden sun The white bark And “what’s done is done” Down the run And past her smoking fuse Look at the door My name is news The Flashing Red It’s in Her head The subtle flame It’s in My name

There's a lot of symbolism in this one.
