Dead of the night thoughts surface
Bringing a dream to life
Nightmare!

Physical being so fragile
Shifting at touch from mind's alchemy
Becoming a new creature

Transmogrification of myself
A thing that should not be
A fate I cannot flee

Betrayed by my own kin
A battle I cannot win
Seeing humanity anew

Breaks the ties
They see me now as a plague
As they, to I

Dealt the deathblow by my own family
Forced to hide
Excommunicated by the species

I die
A thing that cannot be
Metamorphosed into an insect

A fate I cannot flee
What kind of fate awaits me?
Betrayed by own kin

Hampered by my injury
A battle I cannot win
Exoskeleton's been caved in

My death knell tolling for me now
I want to live but can't see how
This is where they will find me dead

In a dark room underneath a bed
