I used to dream in tongues
In languages left unspoken
Fear of knowing
Fear of being the one
Twisted in the moment of falling behind
Running in the wrong direction
Being lost to time
Finding a place to call your own
Then losing the key
Fearful memories
Alone at last
Drunken nights
I forget my past
The people
The places
And the feelings that live there
I will tell you a story
Pull up a chair
Listen closely
“I let the devil in once and he has lived here since.”
I hope it haunts you
Like a memory out of reach
Just there by a figure of speech
Twisted thoughts
Round and Round
Buried under the idea of being alone
Forget my name
Remember me
Is it so hard to go down in infamy
