Into Death

Demons all around
Pulling me down
Fight them off
Into death I drown

Gnashing and clawing
Laughing when I fail
Trying to get up
They pound the last nail

Demons all around
Pulling me down
Fight them off
Into death I drown

Seeing me stumble
They pounce on my back
I try so hard to ignore
But they pull me into the black

Demons all around
Pulling me down
Fight them off
Into death I drown

Let me be
Break me free
Let me be
Break me free

Demons all around
Pulling me down
Fight them off
Into death I drown

Into death
Into death
Into......
