Here they come
into my perfect castle,
eating up the walls of clay.
Digging into it
with teeth and muscle,
making holes with
sharpened nails.
The dark night
predators
in shiny armor
are coming deep
inside of me.
And now
they're stealing
all my power,
taking everything
I have to give.
But it's their eyes
that's magnetizing
and their voices
hypnotizing,
I don't dare
to wake up
from this
perfect nightmare

She came back
looking for
unbroken,
the most
innocent of hearts.
The nightfall queen
of cursed longing
is stalking you
through your dreams.
She makes up tales
about sweet love
and whispers it
into your ears.
Please give
her nothing,
this is
false hope,
crawling up
into your mind,
'cuz empty heart
will give you
nothing, but
it will keep you
safe from harm.
