Fear...
of the dark
of soft rain on the window
the crash and flash of a storm...
forgotten in the safety of a mother's embrace
the monster in your dreams
who chased you till you fell and cried
the plunging drop into darkness
till you woke up safe and warm in bed
No fear lasted -no true misery existed
In my dreams,
you hold bloodstained knives
and I know the blood is mine.
Then blood splatters on the floor
and I fear it's yours and hers
The soft enchantment in two lover's eyes
but the eyes are yours and hers
Locked gaze...
Ecstasy on earth...
I can't wake up
the darkness surrounds me night and day
these nightmares go on throughout the day
A fleeting glimpse of a knife
the tempting silver blade
The enticing rustle of aspirin
offering sweet oblivion
The fear is eternal, relentless, can't be forgotten
Nothing but you can make it stop
But I won't beg
I'll hope and pray for soothing sleep... for as long as it takes
I'll hope and pray for eternal sleep... for you'll never be mine
