The Premonition - Deceased

Broken down a nervous wreck yet there are no regrets

All the prestige drains my soul as illness takes to bed

It’s time I need to ease my mind and become new again

So rest my child and be cleansed for breakdown’s not the end

But what is this?

What leads me from my room?

An apparition?

It beckons me!

In this place here I rest while doctors roam the halls

Yet I’m alone inside myself to struggle with my fears

And there it is I can see a shadow on the wall

Calling me towards the end and onwards to the morgue

But the fear it takes my breath away

So near is the lonely world of death

I try to think of other things yet it is always near

I just can’t help but walk its path and end up at the morgue

No, not the morgue!

Not that dreaded place!

The morgue is cold and stinks of death the bodies freezing cold

I feel the grasp of something strange pulling at my soul

The dead just laying on their slabs sends chills right down my spine

And there’s that shadow on the wall its image stains my mind

That shadow, that shadow on the wall

That shadow, that creeping down the wall

What does this tell me of my mind this crazy lunacy

I fear that this is a sign that death is wanting me

That shadow, that shadow on the wall

That shadow, creeping down the wall

That shadow, that shadow on the wall

That shadow, creeping down the wall

Down the wall!

My release from this place should take this all away

My mind has healed up long enough for life it now awaits

So off I’ll go into the sky and ride the flying plane

Back to a place where I belong the soothing hand of fame

But wait it’s that shadow once again my fate is in my own hands

I run away from the boarding plane that takes off in the night

As up in flames death does claim everyone but I

That shadow, that shadow warned me of the end

That shadow, that shadow let me live again

That shadow, that shadow pulled me from the flames

That shadow, a premonition!
