Oubliette

Questions, accident, theory, sleep
Dreams, monsters,
Altenative release
The question plagues
My befuddled brian
If the damn noise would stop
I could learn to think again
Lying, crying, cowering like sheep
Racing, pacing, too scared to sleep

Answer me this if you can
Am I a rat or am I a man

Ink black rolls, light recedes
Hungry tapeworm, filling it's needs

Not that again, too soon again
Falling down again,
Coming back again

Into the black again,
Turning sour again
Turning bad again,
Turning mad again

Leave me in peace
With my own mind
Leave me with my own kind

Stand there by yourself
Smiling faces all around
Stand there by yourself
Taking root in the ground
Stand there by yourself
Feel stares bore into you
Stand there by yourself
Disorientation eating you
