lyrics

Someone told me how to summon her.
So, I tried it like a schoolyard dare,
Thinking it would never work.
But it did.

She appeared at the side of my bed,
Head to toe an unearthly black.
I couldn’t feel her arms beneath me,
Lifting.

So, I stayed very quiet, still, and limp
As she carried me across the house,
Floating.

She never made a sound either,
Not even as she struggled to stuff my body
Into a cupboard.

Terrified, I never once looked at her face.
