When Demons Call
When a demon is dry-hacking in the night
on the moor
As a rabbit squeals and dies in the mouth
of a fox
And the clock chimes three just before a neighbor
starts calling his dog
And something awful drags you out of your sleep
to make a cut across your heart
That is the time to put your slippers on
and begin to write
on the moor
As a rabbit squeals and dies in the mouth
of a fox
And the clock chimes three just before a neighbor
starts calling his dog
And something awful drags you out of your sleep
to make a cut across your heart
That is the time to put your slippers on
and begin to write
