Asylum

This place is a hole,
But home for the shattered,
A distant scream,
Another one battered,
Whispers and mumbles fly through the dead air,
Was that real?
Ha! who would care.

I'm not me anymore,
I don't remember,
A new one walks through the door,
I laugh at his face!
For he is still sane,
But sooner or later,
He won't be tame.

Click, click
Goes a noise,
Tick, tick
Goes the time,
Smells like death,
Life corroding away,
All covered in grime.

No sane minds here,
Only lost souls,
Come, come
Seep into nothingness,
Oh Asylum.
