Voices of War~ Sept. 22, 2020

They told me not to listen to the voices in my head!
What am I supposed to do when they follow me to bed?
Cause, "Kill! Kill! Kill!" is what they scream,
But man, I know, that's not just what they mean.
I hear them scream, them screaming in the night,
Screaming in my ear that every wrong is right.

They told me not to go out in the darkest hour
'Cause that's when every good grape really starts to sour.
"Blood! Blood! Blood!" is what they chant
And to refuse them one really can't.
I hear them chant, chanting in the dark
And man, I knew, 'cause the dogs, they ceased to bark!
