The Night Terror

Tonight It comes down The rain The steel crisp blue rain Puddles block my journey The ground now laced in murky mud One slip And then that's it Tonight Pain comes down DIsdain Self induced rage pain Lays me on life's gurney To the hospital of broken souls Mine's shattered And that's it Tonight He comes down The Blue Haired Monster To revive pain for longer I don't think I can keep swimming Away That's it Tonight Somebody loves me The rain The disdain The Blue Monster's pain They're all gone No they're not They'll always be there But someday, they'll be smaller And that's all she wrote
