Cuterebra

Cuturebra
 In the hallway down the staircase slowly opening the creaking door
 Someone comes along and smiles and for a moment all is quite the norm
 Avoiding all the crowd below the sound of conversations spin
 And patiently I wait in every corner for someone to come in
 Dry'd in dust on darkened floors, a gasp resists with every buried breath
 Watching shadows through the cracks of light that shape and sway with every step
 So carefully and quietly and with an undetected hand
 In comes a breeze it sweeps the room and follows with a distant slam
 Donned in bath kerchief the chambermaids unlock and let the daylight in
 She spoke of trees, and creeping things and nestled foundlings in the Starlight crib
 With an unsaving clench a bribe under the cloak is unconcealed
 And all her secrets now belong forever to whom she revealed
 We build on wretched ruins thinly veiled below our skin & bones
 Cowards, sing each other's rhyme and add a verse of all your wicked moans
 It starts off as a whisper and grows into the deepest battle cry
 Pressing ears and spying eyes await the beast we're nurturing inside
 Questions fly and so do I, the hole fills with our harshest stones unturned
 'Neath the cardhouse all my kings are buried and the queen won't say a word
 We plant the tales, they feed on us 'til accusations earn their wings
 Sold out for sharpened tongues and spit into the air these creeping things
