I wrote this in the spur of the moment, there is personal truth, even in the ravings of a mad man.

A Madmans truth

Whispers seep in
From every lost shadow
Words full of venom
Tell tales of woe

Pain in my head
Cant keep voices out
Filling my heart
With their fear and their doubt

Sleep is forgotten
Awake now forever
But i found a way
Im getting more clever

When I follow their words
A moments reprieve
But how many souls
Must i make take their leave

I'm not a bad man
Please do not judge
I don't like all this murder
Their requests i begrudge

For there is no other way
I will never know peace
But in those few seconds
I feel sweet release
