Sitting in my room, I found a certain peace, From the bones that were shattering outside my window crease Not shaken nor stirred, not frightened in the least I realized that my limbs might really be a beast’s I heard the screams in dreams, which all were in my head I knew how they were feeling, they all wanted me dead And though I tried to drown them out, they wouldn’t go away They lingered there, in deep despair; they sat and cried all day They come back and they haunt me, without a daunt or dare But then I wake up suddenly, and realize they weren’t there Now I shake and shiver, I fear I’m going mad I do believe this worry is the worst I’ve ever had I hear noises out my window, once again I hear the screams I throw my curtains o’er the chair, they have fallen off their beams And just as the curtains fell, with them I fell dead The monsters they had come for me, they found me in my head.

Atramentous Abyss
Sitting in my room, I found a certain peace, From the bones that were shattering outside my window crease Not shaken nor stirred, not frightened in the least I realized that my limbs might really be a beast’s I heard the screams in dreams, which all were in my head I knew how they were feeling, they all wanted me dead And though I tried to drown them out, they wouldn’t go away They lingered there, in deep despair; they sat and cried all day They come back and they haunt me, without a daunt or dare But then I wake up suddenly, and realize they weren’t there Now I shake and shiver, I fear I’m going mad I do believe this worry is the worst I’ve ever had I hear noises out my window, once again I hear the screams I throw my curtains o’er the chair, they have fallen off their beams And just as the curtains fell, with them I fell dead The monsters they had come for me, they found me in my head.
