Edwardhood and the Iron Maiden



Lying awake and crawling in space
I cud come around
I could get some bath
Get me some prayer
A roomful of thoughts
And a nice space for my dreams

If something is wrong
then maybe I’m not feeling it
this side of heaven
is empty right now
memories caving in,
it was more than my conscience could take

I tried to say it was right
Waging wars in my chest
My side of the well is not where I stand
Spare me some coin
And maybe I could throw in some prayer

Took it all
Reigned my senses, tied my soul
Pegged my sorrows
Armed my sores
Hammered my delusions
Scraped my hopes

We’ve lost the battle
But that’s not all
Slightly cynical
It’s the story’s moral
Scathing reasons
Unholy vibrations-

Lay down your cads
The gods, they’re listening

In my dreams they’re
not asleep
