INCUBUS

Through the trees, under dry, broken leaves
The place of hiding in the daylight hours
People walk past and over the waiting
None of these pose interest at all

The sun doesn't mix with the sadistic mind
Taking its time to resurrect
Neglect
The suffering demon needs to feed
Greed
The monsters inside us all
Slowly decipate into dust

Creating a victim in cosmostic fate
Shaping someone's destiny, never too late
While the darkness reigns true
he thinks of nothing he cannot do
Glowing eyes bleed desire to be

Savage, evil, venomous scorn
Tears open his mind
Shares violence unborn
Reaady to play in the night's disarray
Seeking to find sustaining prey

Stalking the perimeter
Evoking what keeps his soul timid through day
Smells what he needs
Moves in closer to see his night's prey

Merging with glass and moving through
The window of this girl
Stalling her heart, she is so pure
Just what the beast desires

The victim does not wake to feel pain
The incubus strangles purity again
Age was unknown, she will scream when she wakes
Naked and ravaged, her innocence raped

The demon belongs on the other side
Crosses over to work by night
A souveneir is stolen
As is the victims dignity
In the morning when she wakes
there will be something missing

the sleeping demon will awake again
Incubus will give them his sin.
