Terror Consumes

What mind can't devour itself?

Atrophied ego, degenerate cells

Just beyond the curtain of dark

An unknown number, an unseen attack

Suggestions of something beyond

Moving about in dark attic rooms

Subconscious thought working against

Your own will

Terror Consumes

Dread's geometric design

Evolution's byproduct, sickening fear

The mind simply cannot abide

All of the things that it can't stop creating

Branches aligned in the sky

Brain is imprisoned and skull is a tomb

Beckoning arms of the night

Calling you

Terror Consumes

Terror Consumes

No release from horror

Recreation recombines

Charming by the light of day

By night it realigns

Anxiety will overcome

And all the world's askew

You can't see the ghost

But be assured, the ghost sees you

Pale radiance as day breaks again

Heaving a sigh as the witch takes its leave

Go hide in the hours of the sun

But time is a cycle, it's finite, and soon is it spent

On the horizon the sun

Is dying and red in a worsening gloom

You will return to the house

that you built

Terror Consumes
