Why hello there insanity
Let me walk you 'round the floor
If you look off to your left
you'll see the girl i was before.

The tiles might be broken
But its nothing time can't fix
But if you think its art-work
Then all the broken parts will mix.

And the doorknobs may not work
But you can crawl through like spies
The holes you made with your fist
Are looking just your size.

The mirror in the hallway
Has seen some better days
And although you may see yourself
It's not uncommon to also see haze.

And the windows may be drafty
But i promise its not too cold
And if you can deal with that
I'm sure that you'll be sold.

And you see here in the closet
That the lightswitch doesn't work
But that only because
There are inner demons that lurk.

The picture frames are empty
But thats only an attempt to forget
All the fun i once had
And the soul that I once bet.

There's shattered glass in the bedroom
From when you told it was goodbye
And i let the bird out of it's cage
Knowing it would die.

But the basements a scary place
To which I'm sure you won't creep
For the 6 and a half foot hole
Is looking mighty steep.

So wouldn't you like to stay a while
In the place my life now resides
Hidden within the walls
Are the horrors that long to hide.
I feel like i'm letting insanity in and allowing it to take over.


And i love it.

Thank you for welcoming me in, not many people are as inviting as you! I am always interested in new potential clients! And as for the inner demons, you should talk to my dad. He has a knack for dealing with his handy work.
