Poem:
Siren Song
sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep
it’s time to dream
dream -----------------
and sleep
safe and sound
safe and sound
safe and sound
I dream ---------------
what?...Oh...I hear
a song
a sweet song sung by you
strange and weird
calling my name
and I can’t resist
I give in to that sweet song
and I dream of you
you, of you
but why?
why
am I disturbed
by this sweet song?
siren song
sweet song
sung to me
at night
I listen and I dream
and I fall for the song
despite
the warning that I hear
that I hear
siren song
horror, horror, horror night
horror, horror
scream--------
slash
scream
massacre part
this is the end of the world
[note: the part is ca. 2 minutes and 35 seconds long]
and I sleep
I sleep
safe and sound
it was
just a bad dream
safe and sound
it was
just a bad dream
and I sleep
I sleep
safe and sound
I sleep
I sleep
and I sleep
I sleep
and I sleep and dream
