Things I hear at Night
women screaming
blood pouring down my window
these are things I hear at night
chopping of bones
grinding of meat
these are things I hear at night
chrildern beaten
babies crying
Mothers pleading
these are things I hear at night
the crackel of fire
and the failing attempts
of water being splashed
I wonder
if they will come for me too
What horrible things
do they plan to do with me?
being pulled from my bed
I smell the smell of sulfur
The smell of burning flesh
ripping at my bed
No not tonight
I plead
Not again
scratching at the walls
Nails being pulled from my fingers
I cry out in pain
in anger
In frustration
LET ME GO!
I'VE HAD ENOUGH!
Tears dripping off my cheeks
blood dripping out from my fingers
the smell of dead fish come from ahead of me
What about little Jonny
do you think he had enough?
Or what about little Susie
you think she wanted the same fate?
And if I let you go,
What do you think will happen to me?
Id have no purpose
Id have no reason
Pulled out into the street
Women being raped
Men tied up to telaphone poles
Nails driven threw their heads, necks, stomaches,
and dicks
soft moans of pain
These are things I hear at night
the chopping of trees
the barks and meows of pets
and the gutter
youd think full of water from the rain
turned red
from all the damned blood
These are things I hear at night
Or do I?
something soft
something welcoming
looking in to eyes,
red with hate
eyes rolling in to the back of my head
wondering if I live through the night
Something soft
something welcoming
a warm touch
the smell of human
the smell of puke
a warm touch
the smell of perfume
Wake up Wake up
Its all in your head
Wake up Wake up
its not real.
These are things I hear at night.
