the father... the son... the monster... the father... the monster... all are now one......

A Night of Gray

He seems to appear the day you forgot

He kills those he loves and he loves you a lot

And running won't help

There isn't a way

To escape from your father, Egregious Gray



He's inside your house and he gives you a scare

But you are convinced that there's nobody there

All caution betrayed

You walk into the hall

To hear a man roar and the roof start to fall



You run through the door of the mansion you own

Unlucky for you that the sun has not shown

You here something there

So you look behind

And see nothing but stars and the moon start to shine



You run through the night and you dash through the trees

Not daring to gasp or even to breathe

You'd rather die here

Of a natural cause

Then die from your fathers unnatural claws



All of a sudden! Right out of the brush

You're snatched by a tall man who tells you to shush

With a uniform on

The policeman looks scared

You pray to your lord that he might be spared



What happens is this, the policeman gets mobbed

By the giant gray hand of a giant gray blob

He dashes right past

Not looking your way

You're smart enough now that you know not to stay



A year has gone by, and you didn't know

Your fate has been sealed, the sun did not show

The ground has been covered

With laces of white

You look to your left. Something gives you a fright!



Your father! You run but you cannot escape

You're snatched by the hand of a giant gray ape

You writhe and you sweat

You gasp and you steam

Awake now, you realize that it was a dream







That moment, you realize that you need a drink

You've no time to act; you've no time to think

All caution betrayed

You walk into the hall

To here a man roar and the roof start to fall
