Voices

Voices, voices - Make them stop! Tap, tap - Whether I like it or not

Walking, (shhh!) walking - Outside my door. Knock, Knock - What has the devil come for?

The knob turning - the lock (click!) - Oh god, save my soul! Praying, praying - Please let me go quick!

Running, running - A hand at my neck. Chocking, chocking - Breathing my last breath.

Why, why? Do you choose me? Voices, voices - “To set you free”

The light, the warmth - I though the devil’s at my door?

“Shhh!” quiet my child leave your body on the floor.
