Those Demons Went Away

by Kerri   Sep 6, 2004


Everyone sees me with a happy face
But all they see is a lie
Because all I really want to do
Is take those pills and die

I don't quite understand
Why I feel this way
I think it is the demons
And because of what they say

They tell me that I'm worthless
They tell me I'm no use
They say things like your better off
You should just use the noose

So on that cold November day
I stood there in my room
Listening to all the things they said
I stood there just in gloom

Why couldn't I be special
Why was I the freak
I gave into those demons
Because I am so weak

I looked down at myself
From the halfway line
I saw the look on my family's face
Their faces did not shine

So I sat there wondering
Was I really loved
And I yelled my plea of living
To that awesome God above

And soon I found myself
Awake and living free
Because I believed in God
Those demons went away from me

Now I read the bible
I try my best to pray
I now know I had a second chance
And this was what I had to say

The God above
That man so invincible
I am with him now
I am not anymore invisible
