The sound came late at night

Coming through the halls

Was the night I left my bed

To the sirens of angel well


Coaxed me from my deep trance

From the tangled sheets

To the misty early morn

Upon the foggy streets


The sky was  thick, churning, and blue

Branches thrashing out

And when I heard the alluring sound

I ignored the angry cloud


The moon tumbled from the sky

And crashed into my eyes

Bright silver crescents

Half opened insomnia


The sound came in the night

My need began to swell

Twas the night that I died

By the sirens of angel well


They pulled me down

And took my heart

With their shining hair

They tore my eyes apart


They took my breath

From my lungs

Sinking like a stone

Through murderous wishes

Their song still rung



The early light rose above

The tolling of the bell

My ignorance had sunk to death

To the sirens of angel well.
