The Company Of Lost Souls

If your sanity is gone
If your body is weak
Sit down this night
It is this which you seek

Intruders stay not
In this haven of space
Their minds are closed
And can't feel the pace

Open your mind
Then let in what waits
You won't be alone
In this very strange place

You may leave in turmoil
You may leave in peace
We all see things differently
In this place that you seek

The music grows loud
As the drink lays you bare
Some seek oblivion
Some just don't care

This place is guarded
By things that few see
Dark winding shadows
That engulf you and me

The hour it is struck
The time it is done
The company disperses
But still feels the pull

We live in this world
We live in this place
Thrown together by need
Held together like lace

But! is it by chance
Or the company that calls
That company of souls
In such an unholy place
