The Beast
As I lay me down to sleep
None is granted for this beast
I've not died yet I don't live
In fear of death, it's death I give
My breath is none
My heart lays still
I despise this beast who craves the kill
This bloodlust that consumes the days
These gruesome nights when the monster slays
I've found I now fear my own shadow
I've found my mind is truly mad now
My sleepless dreams are always haunted
By the death I've always wanted
The chilling screams that fill my ears
The lives I've ended over all these years
Their faces, always haunting me
Their voices, always taunting me
I cannot escape the beast
And every night, as he feasts
I'm losing me, becoming him
Forgive me God, for I have sinned.
