Boy enters room boy leaves room boy enters room switches off light
climbs into bed sleeps boy enters room nervous fumbles in darkness what
was that sound some kind of clattering what was it lights oil lamp just
a trapped bird boy enters room breathes in sighs what a beautiful day
sun streams in through window children playing outside if only all days
were like this boy enters room well it's not what I expected but the
rent's cheap is that a cockroach well I expect the cat will get rid of
those in no time miss the old house but they said it would be safer to
stay here until the trial it's for my own good and I am grateful and
this is probably hell but at the moment I have no choice boy enters
room wrong one what a mistake to make try next door boy enters room
quickly undoes sports bag zip sweeps in silver bronze electrical
sentimental that'll fetch a bit right that's me done better get out
before the pigs make a house call who's that run for it boy enters room
yeah I think we could really do something with this place bit of paint
new carpet this could be just what we need to boy enters room this is
her everything in this place reminds me of her faint perfume coffee
stain on the carpet gaps in the dust no time yet to settle still fresh
how can I go on without her boy enters room where are they turfs out
drawers god that's revolting they're covered in boy enters room slams
door shut pushes tables chairs stool up against it they're coming hide
where hide where HIDE WHERE footsteps on stairs we know you're in there
tip tap tip tap bang Bang BANG boy enters room vomits flushes wipes
mouth boy enters room gazes at every crack in the wall every mark on
the chair in the corner that looks at him like he is dirt pulls out
length of thick cord from coat pocket starts to make a slipknot with
nimble fingers beautiful pulls chair over stamps on its face attaches
one end to the peeling ceiling slips loop over neck in a dream I will
be happy now I will be content boy enters room where am I you should
know don't tell me it can't be I have been trying to get away from here
I have never stopped trying and now you tell me I have been running my
entire life in a perfect circ a perfect circ circ circ boy enters room
boy enters room boy enters room boy enters room boy enters room boy
enters room boy enters room boy enters room boy enters room boy enters
room boy enters room boy enters room boy enters room boy enters room
boy enters room
