Laying Me Down To Sleep
Climbing the sheets, monsters beneath the bed
in dark chapters of my soul timezone meridian
opening the door to the dark obsidian
and soul keepers to the monster's spare parts
listening to the boogie man creeping over the soil
and Aunt Mary sleeping in the hall smiling
with her neck severing her faith...
"Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul
to keep."
