Demon Appetite
Within the depths of silence
Amongst your thoughts are whispers
Where “what if’s” and fantasy collide
You’ll find this great deception
You’ll hide your fears with laughter
Your pain and sorrow too
No other can understand
The song the demon sings
The love of friends and family
Become its favorite food
Each moment held in question
It attacks with strength renewed
Fond memories become too few
As the demon eats away
Caressing as it belittles you
Slowly you become its prey
