Inside my dreams where demons play
Lie simple tidbits of my day
A mem'ry warped, a face that's maimed
A road to nowhere yet unnamed
Or Mona Lisa, old and gray
 
As I lay sleeping, evil pries
Behind my dank and weary eyes
These spooks and specters how they slay
As on my sanity they prey
Their antics leave me traumatized 
Inside my dreams
 
I curse this battle I must wage   
That leaves me trapped inside this cage
Where tainted mem'ries have their way
as I lay war torn from the fray
that leaves me racked and filled with rage
Inside my dreams

Author Notes
With some exaggeration for artistic sake this is true. I suffer from chronic bad dreams.
