Hallways to hell,
Shadows are stretching in the cordoors of your mind.
Blossoms wrap around your brain in bed.
The stars say you're swell,
You are thinking thoughts you thought you'd never find,
As feathered felines are flocking in your head.
Flower petals are dreaming,
The twilights are unseeming.
Stars say not to worry,
They'll tell you a sweet bedtime story.
They say you'll be alright,
Just a bump in the road so you'll be alright tonight.
But the stars are lying,
As you feel your heartbeat dying.
The moon glares,
As its eyes meet your static stares.
You're a simple dear who's always trying,
Sticking to the bedsheets as you lay there lying.
You stuck in the cesspool of your skull,
You found folks that tend to fill your head full.
I am trapped under their stares,
I feel friction descending these stairs.
I am a fool and I am afraid,
But the blinking night lights remain unmade.
Soaring in the darkened sky,
Questions are always asking why.
Regardless now,
I'll die today.
I'll cry tonight.
I regret it all tomorrow.
But that's just what the slithering sounds in my head say,
The stars are asking me if I'm alright,
And I think I can find a few more seconds to borrow.
