There's a nail in the door
And there's glass on the lawn
Tacks on the floor
And the TV is on
And I always sleep with my guns
When you're gone
There's a blade by the bed
And a phone in my hand
A dog on the floor
And some cash on the nightstand
When I'm all alone the dreaming stops
And I just can't stand
What should I do I'm just a little baby
What if the lights go out and maybe
And then the wind just starts to moan
Outside the door he followed me home
Well goodnight moon
I want the sun
If it's not here soon
I might be done
No it won't be too soon 'til I say
Goodnight moon
There's a shark in the pool
And a witch in the tree
A crazy old neighbour and he's been watching me
And there's footsteps loud and strong coming down the hall
Something's under the bed
Now it's out in the hedge
There's a big black crow sitting on my window ledge
And I hear something scratching through the wall
Oh what should I do I'm just a little baby
What if the lights go out and maybe
I just hate to be all alone
Outside the door he followed me home
Now goodnight moon
I want the sun
If it's not here soon
I might be done
No it won't be too soon 'til I say
Goodnight moon
Well you're up so high
How can you save me
When the dark comes here
Tonight to take me up
To my front walk
And into bed where it kisses my face
And eats my head
Oh what should I do I'm just a little baby
What if the lights go out and maybe
And then the wind just starts to moan
Outside the door he followed me home
Now goodnight moon
I want the sun
If it's not here soon
I might be done
No it won't be too soon 'til I say
Goodnight moon
No it won't be too soon 'til I say
Goodnight moon

Someone posted these lyrics on craigslist the other day, and I scoffed at them. But, I had a strange realization tonight as I was walking home from the bus. I think I know when I first got this thing, maybe. It was when I was very young, somewhere between 3 and 6 years old, I don't remember clearly. What I do remember was something scared the bejeezus out of me and I ran to get my mom's help, and she got really annoyed and angrily sent me back to bed, as well as locked me out of her room. I remember I cried and cried and she never came. I have felt an emotional distance with her from then until this very day. When I had this realization, it made me remember this song and look it up on youtube. I had never heard it or even of the artist before. What a pretty song, and kinda sexy, too.
I met with a couple fellow occultist friends of mine yesterday evening, and they are helping me to develop a game plan for dealing with these energies. I say 'these' because I am starting to get an impression that there are several different 'demons' involved, or that several have merged into one, somehow. There is a lot more to this, but I have been cautioned not to analyze, try to understand, or worry about what it is, but rather to just focus on how to get rid of it, and the positive benefits this situation might be bringing me.
