Healing
Inside
Fearing the demons you create inside
The ones that you try to hide
Never to confide
From it you have always fled
So deep is it in your head
Your life you live in fear
you cry so many a tear
Tormented by all around
Screaming without a sound
Darkness fills your soul deep
Go ahead pray your soul to keep
For no reason you weep
Time seems to slow
What's wrong ,you don't know
Everything seems to go wrong
Nowhere do you feel you belong
Lost your way
Nowhere safe to stay
Lost in your mind
Where the demons you find
I know the battle has made you weak
But this peace you seek
Is deep inside
Beyond the place you hide
I must confide
Accept the conflict you feel
Do this to heal
Face what it is you fear
Release that bitter tear
Your fear you must face
Your demon you must embrace
No disgrace
Accept and release
The pain from inside
From life you will no longer have to hide
I know this is true
No matter what you do
You must face your fear
Cry a cleansing tear
Be strong inside
Face that from which you hide
It can drive you insane
Holding all that pain
So much to gain
The demon buried so deep
The reason you weep
Let it go
This I know
I hope to show
What all can be
If you just set yourself free
This demon you hold causes you pain untold
Embrace your fears
Release them tears
Open your eyes and see
To set yourself free
Hope is the key
My words are true
I believe in you
All the fears in your mind
Step up , leave them behind
You carry such strength inside
This battle you face now
You know how
I hope I've shown
Your not alone
I'm there by your side
So don't hide
Don't ever fear
I'm near
Together we can talk
Hand in hand we will walk
From this darkness you feel
Together we can heal
That's my deal
