The Dark Dance

Sometimes when I look at things
I can't trust what I see
I don't know if it's really real
Or rather something I perceive

Reality starts to fade away 
My sanity with it goes
One minute it's held together 
The next minute no one knows

Without so much as a warning
Confusion fills my head
So many reasons left to live
Still the voices want me dead

I want to say I'll be okay 
I pray to God it will pass
But if these demons don't go away
The Devil will own my ass
