Pray The Dark
By darkness_descends
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray the dark my soul to keep
Let me die instead of wake
Fuck the Lord my soul forsake
I don't fear the monsters under my bed
Only the monsters inside my head
God didn't help in this life
I don't want him to interfere when I die
Let me walk amongst eternal flames
Burn away the blackened memory of my name
Incinerate my corporeal remnants
Attempt to erase my infernal existence
Let me wander with damned souls
Forever crying of their pains and sorrows
No one will listen to their sad sad tales
Can;t help but hear their screams and wails
Put me in hell with open ears
So I can listen as I cry my tears
While I reminisce on life and dwell
On the pains of life I know so well
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray the dark my soul to keep
Let me die before I wake
Fuck the Lord my soul forsake.
