dear poltergeist
dear poltergeist
as I compose this letter to you
I am tired
but you are not
my enemies have come for blood
they cheer for I will soon die
my god hides his face from me
I am tired
but you are not
for you are beyond all sleep
and you live through death
and in this moment I accept
that you will never leave
so live through my death
I will reject you no longer
you are always welcome in my home
make your noise
fill this earth with your fear
scrape flesh as you have scraped my walls
thrash about
throw earth and bones as you have done to the chandelier
you are free to
topple my enemies as you have toppled my urns
give them no sleep
shake
thrash about
you conduct the drums of war
for you orchestrate victory over the great silence of Death
and afterwards, you shall knock on the door
and you shall not knock twice
for the door is open
celebrate
scream for joy
show them your dance
make your noise
make them know
let them know
you make the sound
they make the silence
you will not be denied
let them know
only you shall stand
sound the drums of victory
thrash about
let them know
you live
I AM HERE
YOU SHALL THRASH ABOUT WITH ME
WE SHALL LIVE AS BROTHERS
SING
DANCE
SCREAM
BREAK BONES
TOPPLE WALLS
SCRAPE FLESH
YOU SHALL NOT SLEEP
YOU SHALL AWAKEN
FILL THIS EARTH WITH YOUR WRATH
CELEBRATE
LET THEM KNOW
YOU ARE THE ONE WHO KNOCKS
YOU GIVE THEM NO SLEEP
YOU SHALL LIVE
AND THEY SHALL FALL SILENT
NOW.....
SING!!!!
