Demons In My Soul

These demons won't leave me alone
They haunt me night and day
They ceaselessly attack
But I don't want to hear what they have to say
They tease me and taunt me
They want to take control of my mind
I try to push them back
But they attack from the front and behind
I feel them getting stronger
I feel my body getting weak
They have almost got a hold of me
My mind is getting bleak
They tear me apart
I'm no longer whole
They feed on my body
And devour my soul
They have control of me
And I am lost in a world of fear
I fight against the darkness
But it's too strong, I'm no longer here
