Analysis of Nevermore
Theres a place called Nevermore
A home to the darkness and monsterous creatures alike
They watch us as we sleep
They feed on our fears
No one can see them
But there was one who did
They killed him because he would not stay
We remember his name and his stories of killers
Horror in nightmares the dark side of us we thrive
But if you notice them
And they notice that you see them
Then you will be taken from the world
And into the world of nightmarish monsters
We will forget you
Spread your ashes and come home they whisper
Come home to us in this place we call Nevermore
