I am here
 I watch you sleeping
In my head
 Those thoughts come creeping
Listen closely
 Listen now
It's time for me
 To take this bow.
It's over for you
 For you must fly
Out of life
 You must die
I am here
 To do just that
I am here
 You sleeping rat
The time has come
 for you to go.
Please forgive me
 For you know
My heart is here
 My mind is gone.
You awake
 And then you yawn
You see me here
 You wonder why
There's no doubt
 You have to die
Lips part to speak
 I start to shriek
The knife so deep
 The memories I keep.
