Vermin

The night falls upon the old ruin Like dark wings, caressing the stones Something hides just above the silence Disturbing the peace of my mind And in the darker corners of the night While I twist and turn in my cold sweat Mystic shadows seeking out their pray Hiding away, from the light I'm pulled from a dream, at o-five-o-nine The source of the sound remain unseen From under the floor and inside the walls The maddening scraping, chills through the bones And in the flicker of a candle light A mystic shadow of a faceless soul Showing the way, into the night I feel - Eyes stare at me I'm crying - Out for mercy I hear them - screaming in anguish From under the floor boards and up through my spine I feel - Eyes stare at me I'm crying - Out for mercy I hear them - screaming in anguish From under the floor boards and up through my spine I can feel the compulsion growing strong in me Insanity, a ferocious stream of destiny
