Demons I Fight
There are demons I fight
That live inside of my head
No one knows that they exist
I choose to hide them instead
They torment my heart
And they torment my mind
There is no sense of peace
That I’m able to quite find
I wish they would go away
And finally leave me all alone
They have killed all my happiness
While my depression has grown
All the pain I have stored
Would make most men die
But I push through it all
And when no one is looking I cry
Hiding the river of tears that flow
One down each side of my face
I wish I had another emotion to feel
And this misery I could replace
Until that day comes around
I’ll be stuck in this living hell
Forever filled with this depression
Unable to ever feel like I’m well
