Act IV: The Laughing Coffin - MyChildren MyBride

Months gone by

And every single night

I have the same dream

Where you’re there

And then you’re not

Its like you fade away

Your body seperates

How much longer will I be

Forced to relive that misery?

She’s trying to communicate

Am I asleep?

Or am I awake?

I’m under attack

Looking in a broken mirror

All I know is that

I am not that man

That man isn’t me

Its like I’m haunted

Haunted by those memories

Haunted by the visions

Haunted by the noises

Haunted by the demons

And all their distant voices

Walking past a window and

In the reflection all I see

Is a shadow and not the man

I know staring back at me

Is that who I talked to?

Is that who I confronted?

Who I pulled from the darkness?

You’re not the one I wanted!

Lights flickering, noises in the night

Never sleeping.

This can’t be right

Its getting worse and worse

Its to the point, its like I’m cursed.

I’m…

Haunted

I’ve come to the conclusion that it can’t be her at all

But something darker still waiting to come forth

When I closed my eyes and woke up in this dream

She was standing there again separating at the seams

I cried out but like always it was too late

I ran over to her body, watching it seperate

And when it finally cleared, I couldn’t believe

That the thing underneath that darkness was me

Cause I’m haunted
