My Infection

Raven screams
and all your dreams
are filled with nightmares.

Oh, litle girl, are you scared?

Do you believe me when I tell you
not to believe?

Are you looking when I tell you
to look away?

Just close your eyes
and wish them all dead..
Your ghosts and demons;
you can't get them out of your head
or
The sounds of footprints
trailing closely behind.
The birds
all hover
as you look up at the sky...

I watch the feathers fall around you,
as you run like hell..
Oh, darling, I think it's just time..
.. And I know you've got a secret to tell..

(don't we all)


So trade your confessions
in for possession;
the sweetest injection..
.. Let me soak your veins
with my infection.
