Slumber Deadly Slumber

I'm now down here alone
Pacing through my conscious thoughts
Someone save me...
My mind's malfunctionled to all this ache
Sorry about this, Darling
Somehting lurks, creeps in the back of mind
Somewhere back there, there's a secret lock
That only one has opened yet...

"Remeber I'm here for you..."

Sit up, awake from wicked sleep
The slumber which would kill
     me with my dreams
Glorious, horrific
If I could die here tonight, or maybe not
I'm transcending time and memory

Oh Dear God, I shouldn't be alive
For all that I've done to Them
They are the ones that meant the most
They are the ones I've hurt the most
Come now me so differently now...
...Come know me as None
