THREE SISTERS

When I was drifting away at the end of the day
My strung out mind had almost failed
I started seeing it coming but way too late
The Fear nipped out my breath and chilled the roots of my hair
I opened my eyes but couldn’t move at all
My room, my closet, myself, except my body was numb
She stuck her nails into my heart and squeezed out pain and a moan
And then I heard her voice was saying – Come. Away! You can go!

I realized I was dying when pain enflamed my brain
And the taste of vomit left me feeling it was a call for help
I saw her curious look that stared into my soul
And then her morbid roar ignited the spin of my world
She split up my life with the swing of her scythe
With the last pump of my heart I heard her evil laugh
You are dead now – she said, this is the end of your path
I didn’t have to pretend I didn’t know it was Death

And when the flash of the end blinded my mind
Every sound and presence disappeared in this light
I couldn’t hear or feel, or even care at all
That I was being swallowed by this viscous Void
I struggled for the last time; I felt the air in my lungs
And a spark of hope lit the way out of my trance
I cannot live like I was, I have to change my way
I had a new beginning of life, woke and entered the day.

Three sisters of Satan will seize our faith
We’re all gonna die in their grasping hands
Their shadow over us we can never evade
We all know the names; they are Void, Fear, Death
