Jehrmar - You Don't Know!

It stayed here again and asked
The fish died again when it looked at us with rolling eyes
Bloody dead fish, we feel the pinch
Where is here, what?

Pinch me in dreams cause I'm still not listening
X marks the spot on your calendar days
A beard half eaten smiled crawling with legs

Like a crow on a motorway
Picking at scabs
Sees red when a blackleg
Drives past in a cab
