Delirium

A half-empty glass of wine,
Tonight I'm on my own again.
The window light dazzles my eyes,
I wish the thunderstorm began!

I draw the curtains very tight,
Let the dark come sooner now
to cover me with its black veil;
I'll fall into mad sleep somehow...

I see strange faces, hear a song,
Suddenly soaring like a bird;
The glass is drained, blood's on the snow,
I run and gasp, and fall and crawl...

Some noise, some light... God, where am I?
Am I delirious?.. I cry...
It's time to quit, it's time to wake,
Return to world of void and fake...
