My emotions always crashing together
Resulting in a sadness that plagues me
Always shadowing my very existence
Endless nights staying up late, thinking
Wondering when will all the pain end
Will it ever go away and leave me be
It's grip clutching more on my entirety
Swallowing up my exhausted soul
Teasing me with a loving memory
Snatching it at the sight of a smile
Falling away from guardian angels
Fighting this demon within alone
Ticking away inside me like a bomb
Edging closer to my self-destruction
Mercy to anyone, frozen, out of reach
My soul screaming for salvation
Trembling with dread in a hope that is vain
These chains locking me away
Impossible to ever break free
Leaving me prey to this demon within....
