Monster's Lullaby

Monster's Lullaby

Hush hush little one, close your eyes.
I'll calm your troubles, now still your cries.
Dream a little dream filled of screams and pain.
Hot, warm red baths straight from the vein.
Find your prey, devour them raw.
Leave nothing left between your teeth and claws...
Release your fury on ones deserving,
But not too quick, keep their bodies preserving...
Can you feel it? As bone gives way,
From beneath your feet, like mountains they lay,
Upon the ground, bodies piled on another,
And smile as you give in to ecstasy's shudder.
For far too long, you've been kept inside.
Unfurl your legs as we go on a ride.
A hunt of proportions that no man has known,
The Reaper will call you as one of his own.
So bide your time and make your plans,
So when they run, they'll come right to your hands.
Send chills down their spine, fear cold and prickly,
And when they wish for death...deliver it quickly.
So calm your cries and sleep in your bed,

......For soon I will let you out of my head......
