The scrawlings of a madman Stuck in my head They aren't meant to be seen And certainly not read Insanity through carvings The life that I led For the period of time That I lived my life dead Black rivers of nonsense Like the blood that I shed The words on the paper Hang by a thread The scrawlings of a madman Slain in my bed Poisonous ink My appetite fed Just ****** and repeated My limp body spread Crystal white sheets Now dripping with red Ripped open too wide From the places I bled The logical lunacy Fills me with dread The scrawlings of a madman All wisdom has fled Turn the next page And forget what I said It seems I forgot The demons I wed The scrawlings of a madman Came from my head.

Scrawlings of a Madman
The scrawlings of a madman Stuck in my head They aren't meant to be seen And certainly not read Insanity through carvings The life that I led For the period of time That I lived my life dead Black rivers of nonsense Like the blood that I shed The words on the paper Hang by a thread The scrawlings of a madman Slain in my bed Poisonous ink My appetite fed Just ****** and repeated My limp body spread Crystal white sheets Now dripping with red Ripped open too wide From the places I bled The logical lunacy Fills me with dread The scrawlings of a madman All wisdom has fled Turn the next page And forget what I said It seems I forgot The demons I wed The scrawlings of a madman Came from my head.
