Lullaby Of Insanity

Here, where clouds paint the sky

A canvas of pitch black darkness

All voices silenced, except those in my head

No nightmare can compete

This sick melody, my lullaby

The last thing that I need

A sickening melody of insanity

Here, where night is all and everything

And sleep is so much desired, so much

To shut down the voices in my head

Hear, the voices arrived again

A panorama of ghosts and ghouls

On an ailing parade in my head

Hear their cries, calling my name again

Tragic echoes of my dire past

When silence is all I need in my head

Shut down! End this masquerade of pain

Shut down! This call to the insane

Shut down! I plead, I beg, I crawl, I crave

Shut down! End this lullaby of insanity

To sleep is to live

We need it like air

To live is to die

First rule of life

And I, I die to sleep

Every night again

Yet these haunted moments

When we sail away

When we empty our head

These dreadful moments

Take my breath away

And panic rules

When the hour is nigh

As for me

To go to sleep is to die

End this masquerade of pain

This call to the insane

I plead, I beg, I crawl, I crave

End this lullaby of insanity

And sink into oblivion
