Thoughts On the Floor

Spiders on my bedroom floor

Shadows knocking at my door

A thousand eyes upon me

And still no light in sight.


Shadows follow me

Like the voices in my head

Like a boot weighed down with lead.


Men fall victim to strife

Dreaming of a different life

Before I say goodbye

Remember me the way I am.
