I've been possessed by demons in the heat,
They rage inside the space behind my eye
And trample on my brain with burning feet.
And when I try to speak they hold my tongue
And when I try to move they trip me up
And then I notice that they have begun
To use my blood to fill a golden cup.
They've melted down the moon and sold it on
They've carved away the sun and stolen trees
They've used the human soul to sit upon
They've cut off both my legs below the knees
I close my sleepy eyes and then I find
These nightmares raging through my sleeping mind.
