shape-shifting breath of vicious black lungs
keepers of moonlit poison tears
take what they want to feed their lust
if you let them in-they’ll know your fears
lie down,
play dead
the beasts are in your bed
seductive creatures of the night
tooth and claw tear flesh from bone
with twisted tongues they tell you lies
possess your body-take your soul
lie down,
play dead
the beasts are in your head
with skeletal remains
they’ll have their way
in their domain
cover your eyes
guard from their lies
lie down with wolves
lie down with wolves
