The Demons of My Soul

In the darkness of my soul The demons howl and scream My visions they came and stole Nevermore to rest in dream When the demons came They entered one by one I'm never to be the same Blackened is my sun The torment and tears Bloody cuts and scars Furrowed deep in years One too many, as the stars The demons chant and whisper My soul learns their words Their call ever crisper Hailed from other worlds Dragging me deeper into blackness Their hush a mighty roar Overcoming my every weakness Their thunder makes me soar Evermore to my own demise I crawl at the speed of night Their bloodied words and bloodied lies A blackened, blinding light Scoring far into my very soul From broken flesh, my blood runs free Gazing out from the abysmal hole I see the screaming demon here is me
