Son of Sam

Voices, hissing in your ear, Voices, installing unknown fear How do you silence voices That no-one else can hear How do you tame That strange, unknown fear Lies and deceit how it twists your perception Safely it starts, whispers of insecurity A bit louder The things it tells you to do Ignore it, avoid it, until the pot boils over and the evil pours forth Suggestion into action Spurned by the wheel of fate Rape and ruin Sodomy, lust Harder it thrusts Vampirism, cannibalism, Pours forth the blood Open your eyes witness the lies away pours the evil away drowns the lust Only your conscience, a quiet distrust No more voices Only white padded walls Your companionship guilt Cushioning lies
