"Insomnia"
Written by: Doctor Strangelove
I was only a boy when it happened. Only a boy. Then I saw... him. But let me start at the beginning.
I was just a simple elf child living my life in Christmas Town. I built toys by day and slept by night. On vacations I'd visit Arbor Day Land. It had lots of trees. That was about all. I had a simple life. Until...
It was the 55th day until Christmas. I was asleep after a hard day of building toys and then decorating for Christmas. I went to bed early that night to prepare for tomorrow. I had a big day of building toys and decorating for Christmas.
Anyway, I was fast asleep. It was a pleasant sleep, full of cozy things, secure inside my dreamland. And then... he attacked!
I was awakened by a monster! Long and lanky and full of... bones. And no skin! No skin at all! And he was singing some horrible, horrible chipper song full of... bones.
Ever since that day, I've been haunted. By that... thing. He screamed and scared me and... ensnared me inside some horrible scary nightmare before Christmas! The holiday was nearly ruined for me. And then there was that whole ordeal with that guy taking over Christmas.
Anyway, the point is, I haven't slept since that night. Every time I close my eyes I see the horrible bone man in front of me. I had to cut the legs of my bed because I was so terrified there could be something underneath there.
All the other elves tell me I'm crazy. They think I'm insane and that the bone man doesn't exist. And maybe I am crazy. Maybe he wasn't real. But the point is... oh; I guess there really wasn't one. I'm sorry; I've been so tired I'm just rambling. And um... what was I talking about again?
