Don't know why this took me so long to put together. It's not much, really :lol:

Skulls & Scalpels

i see your bums as you turn in your white dresses
i dream, dream-stutter of skulls & scalpels

the longer i'll stay here
the sicker i'll get

i see you turn in white dresses
i dream skulls & scalpels

all the stitches in the world
won't keep my head together

white dresses, skulls & scalpels
the longer i'll stay
skulls & scalpels
skulls &

the chief seamstress calls

eyes open, spell broken et al
three day-long hours and then i
turn my back on the hospital

.. any suggestions very much welcome!!
Cheers,
straycat.

You're always welcome to have a go, James :wink:

I see what you mean, Peter. I didn't mean it to refer to the whole situation/story, i.e. to say "and, afterwards, other stuff happened", but more like a shorthand for the chain of opening eyes -> spell broken (no more stuttering dreams) -> back in the 'real world' which isn't half as scary as the dreamt one, especially considering that (spoilers ahead :wink: ) the persona is only temporarily in the hospital, just to get stitches .. but perhaps remembering earlier experiences, making it feel worse and more of a trap than it actually is for him/her at the time..

Thank you both very much for your comments!
Cheers,
straycat.
