UNDER MY BED

racin' mind, racin' mind

racin' mind
ninty-miles-an-hour and risin'
contemplating secrets on a mountain with wise men
devisin' surprisin'
prophetical diamonds
visualisin' california separate into islands
my eyes bend
I see the sights of Nostadamus
bombarding bombs
collosal craters made by comets
my wisdom born in the torn form of seven sonnets
I promise, to put an end to every Doubting Thomas
beyond this, I sank into a greater calmness
the evil in me started having battles with my conscience
the war waged saved - I found myself astonished
the evil just released the things that good had first abolished
I overheard Hitler being raped by Jack the Ripper
and Salinger was taking notes to paint the hellish picture
and on his flaming throne sat Dahmer's lone aquitter
with a ghastly voice Satan did proclaim himself the victor

in my head

when I was young
I hid from monsters underneath my bed
but now I know the demons come from
deep inside my head
I gotta get away from this hell
but I can't get away from myself

when I was young
I hid from monsters underneath my bed
but now I know the demons come from
deep inside my head
I gotta get away from this hell
but I can't get away from myself

it's so demonic, I've gone psychotic
somebody stop it
the pain in my brain
like a train on my body
the mental burnin'
it's re-occurin'
no reassurin'
no way to know 
if I'll be here in the mornin'
I lay me down to sleep
pray to God for relief
and fear to be released
is to be deceased
I'm mentally obese
I never cease to increase
so when I go
may I rest in peace
please?

when I was young
I hid from monsters underneath my bed
but now I know the demons come from
deep inside my head
I gotta get away from this hell
but I can't get away from myself
