Rapture

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuh! My dog Rover took a chunk out of my leg His eyes were crazed, I… killed him with a tent peg Never before has he acted this way He would lovingly play with the children all day My wife…my wife had that same look I tied her up and locked her in the nook My loving wife Jane All I saw in her eyes was hatred and pain Jane’s brother, Glen My best imaginary friend Dead too next to Rover He attack me so I beat him over and over NOOooooo!!! My children…my children are gone They were in the bedroom singing the ding a ling song Trains, cars, planes crashing, falling out the sky Got to switch on the tv, got to find out why I hear screams, shootings, killing, I must hide But I know hunger with make me go outside Oh no look, what the heck? A man bit a chunk out of the news reporters neck Oh God his dying, am I going out of my mind Its as if we have been Left…. Behind…. Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuh! © 2000
