Burning Bright
My demons are inside of me burning bright
My alter ego has found his own pride
The smile on my face is a lie
My demons are inside of me burning bright
Words that rhyme from the heart of a desperate man
Poetry from the pen of a tortured artist
Arms extended in hopes someone will offer a hand
Stumbling and slipping as I walk through the darkness
Blood on the pavement, from my scars that are unhealed
This is what happens when your nightmares become real
Enemies can attack you a hundred times
But loved ones will destroy you by just crossing the line
a ladies man who gave a lot of females times that were Memorable
Until Depression struck and I pushed them away, thinking I had nothing to offer
Alcohol and emotions don't mix well as chemicals
I have a bad relationship with Vodka
It makes me feel things I wish to forget
Thinking about my old girl as I kiss on my one night stands neck
A threesome without her even being here
She hurt me so much, I don't have a piece of my heart left to spare
My demons are inside of me burning bright
My alter ego has found his own pride
The smile on my face is a lie
My demons are inside of me burning bright
