Madness

Words and Music: Aryana

1. Come to me, my shield, my arm
I'm so cold, and I feel fear,
Come and keep me safe from harm,
I will sleep when you are near.

2. Come and lie a while with me,
when you're here, they won't get near,
when you're here, I shall not dream,
when you stay, they won't get me.

3. Can you hear them screaming in my mind, and
can you see them, shadows in darkness, they
want me and then, they creep in my soul and under my skin -
but when you are near to me, they will give in.

4. Oh, I hear them, screaming in my mind and
yes, I see them, linger in darkness, they wait and they,
oh, they wait for to tear, to tear me apart –
they feed on my sanity, they're in my heart.

5. Here they wait and watch me with fiery
eyes, they crawl and creep within shadows and agony
holds me, fetters me like a spider its prey –
come, oh be here, my sword, chase them away!

6. Let me hold you in the dark,
drink with me my bitter wine,
I will touch you with death's mark,
Soon, you'll be forever mine.

7. I will love you beyond time,
I will feed you sweetest wine,
Soon, you'll be forever mine,
Yes, you'll be forever mine…mine…mine (whisper and fade out)


Haunted by nightmares, ghosts of the past and shadowy demons,
Venaro Traverra seeks comfort in Theran's arms.
His love to Theran turns into madness, while he is consumed by his fears -
and slowly Venaros cruel loving drives Theran away from him.
