Ravaged
Nails in my head,
What holes they make.
Blood flows over my eyes,
I go blind, oh I go blind.
The elephant told me where to go,
What bus to take, I do not know.
The numbers I cannot see,
The elephant forgot to tell me.
I saw my best friend the day before,
Remains of a meal drips on the floor.
Bare walls pale they mock and laugh,
I won't see her till next year.
7 days, 7 nights, 7 hours of light,
The trees dance around me in fright.
They sway and sway and stumble and tumble,
Splinters of wood pierce my maimed eyes.
My hands in front, I feel the way,
I hear not the bus in the bay.
The ground is cold, it's rough and hard,
My legs the wheels on the bus they crush.
Empty dishes lying cold.
Bones in them long stripped bare.
Devil girl she looks at me,
Glint in her eyes and a grin on her face.
I drag myself on the cold rough ground,
Legs crushed, eyes blind, mind unsound.
Grit n dirt fills my mouth,
Searing sun burns my soul.
The flash of light I cannot see,
The stabbing pain I do not feel.
When you live in darkness like me,
You shall not know when death claims ye.
