This is actually about a dream I had a long time ago, the only dream I really remember well, the only dream that terrified me.

These bugs are getting greener
And we’re standing and collecting
Crowded in the highway-side trenches
Collecting, because it’s all we have left
Our mega-million, mega-ton towers broken
Weak just like our burning flesh
No one’s wearing expressions today
The sun doesn’t come around here anymore
Into the jars, one by one they go
Green and treacherous, lighting our anti-future

I’m looking into this mirror
This mirror in a bathroom I know well
The devil’s in my shower
And his hell is ripping out the cracks
Soon he is seeping out of the door

He has become the room
Eyes of blackened equation
And his hands of dissuasion  
With his metal as a means of persuasion
And he speaks:
“Ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?”

kinda scares me too

"So what befalls the flawless?
Look what I've built, it shines so beautifully now watch as it destroys me."

...have you ever had dreams like this where you "woke up" and realised you had your eyes open? i did...it was sooo creepy because i was talking to demons...they put a thick veil or fog over my eyes and paralized me...and i was trying to remember how to get them to leave...when i did, right that instant i "woke up"...and my whole body jumped as if i was startled awake...even though i wasn't startled. it waaas FrEaKy. i wrote about this too, it's called "In my dreams" on page 2 here in dark..."just warm and fuzzy feelings all over for you" *shudders* ...nice write by the way.
