Filled with Abyss to the cap of my Skull,
Eyelids closed to keep in the Shadows seeking salvation
Only released in slack jawed salivation.
When I open my Eyes to Dream.
I Dream in the Light, it's safer to me
That is because it's all too bright to see,
So I Imagine, I see,
I see that dark is washed away in a sea of bright
But I ask myself then,
Where is room for me?
I am Dark and sometimes at Night
The Nightmare is all around me
So I open my eyes, and Shadows Slither,
Pouring out Dark and Dream
And all I hear are screams and joy
Because all that I am is a shadow of a boy.
And the only friend I have is the inconstant moon,
For which the swathes of Shadow slide slither and swoon.
For which I forever dream
For I opened my eyes soon, too soon.
