Domestic surroundings scare the hell out of you
You fall through the bed right into a muddy cascade
Your bizarre daydreams are replaced by nightmares anew
Both terrified and disabled to get up and do a fade
The famished reptiles fight to share your bowels and flesh
While vultures peck on your head to pull out your brain
Your beau is unconcerned about that bloody clash
And watches the ugly birds opening your jugular vein
With lightning rapidity you stand at the mystical doorway
To the nameless dwelling, neither heaven, nor hell
Gaining no admittance, you wish you were blown away
Or better be diminished to a callous padded cell
