14 Heartbeats to Death

The void sings to me every night It's lullabies promise peace, freedom from plight I know it desperately, desperately tries To make me listen to it's lies I hear it sometimes, in the trees It whispers softly, in the breeze I see it sometimes, in my bedroom It shows me visions of my tomb It haunts my dreams in every nap I hear it at my door, tap tap tap It walks with me and me alone I hear it call my phone It's getting harder to resist It's promises of endless bliss
