The lurking demons,
Lying deep down within me,
Strive against my good.

Premium MemberDemons 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

SMOKE IN THE MIRROR

songer.co/song/yo0fzxviemznpn1djgo9w8ts

[Intro]
Smoke in the mirror, haunting my sight,
Shadows whisper secrets in the dead of night.
Face don’t fit in this cracked reflection,
Searching for a sign, but it’s just rejection.

[Verse 1]
Heroes crash with a hit and a hiss,
Life's a gamble while we play like this.
Gold teeth shine, but their glow is dim,
Dead eyes stare, where did the hope

Hello, old friend

"Grievance upon you,
       My mere mortal kin.
       You didn’t try hard enough,
       Now sit with your sin"

I’ve sat here before,
And I know your game.
You feed on my sorrow
And wear it as shame.

     "You

My demons know me, they know where to hurt. They quietly tighten their grip on the soul of the man under my shirt. They think that this evil is something I fear. They think that it’s easy to create and control my tears.

But age makes a difference between a boy and a man. Age creates

GOT MY DEMONS, GOT MY PRIDE

As I sit here, all alone
          And as I'm wondering if, I'll even eat at all;    
                As I'm taking my first step towards;

Premium MemberRainbow In The Dark

I feel so bold I have a firefly’s heart
Black wind blows drowning the stars
Demons dance leaving faithless scarred
Do you have a chance rainbow in the dark

I hear a song from long ago
Before I was a sparkle in eye
Melody that brings you close
Even before you live or die

How can it be He calls me
Despite the devil’s

Inner Demons

I hate feeling this emptiness, though not as much as when I have this living being by my side,
It may not fill all that emptiness, but at least it makes it less visible.
Perhaps I can't express my emotions as the 'current society' expects,
Although I know they will never come out, trapped by being just another

Darkest Evening

This frail feeling of worldly fate
Drowning and fast fading, mortal and degrading

This voice, his lips on my ear; whispering, 
Hurtful hate; feeding on fear

These choices, crucial, turning life into a surreal blur of chaos 
Dreadful moments just waiting to occur

The darkness pounces on my soul wrapping and clawing its way to my mind, 
There is

The Demons I Carry

As the demons I carry weigh down on me heavy, shadowed and restless, they cling to my skin, a battle un ending both outside and in. Regrets with sharp teeth sink in my chest. While doubt grips my throat denying me rest. The anger ignites like a flame in my veins, feeding the fire of

Premium MemberThe Qliphoth

Through twilight veils, where echoes rise/
The hollow spheres in shadow thrive/
Unholy husks, where echoes moan/
A broken mirror, void and throne/

1) Thaumiel: Twin God's Divide
A realm where power splits its core/
Opposing forces wage war/
Not unity but sundered might/
A dance of fire and endless night/

2) Chaigidel: Confusion's Crown
A tangled mind, a frenzied tide/
Where reason bends and fears

Demons

Sad and suffering souls. Do you think they are happy creatures? Oh, no!
The life in their hearts is so hard, cold, dark emptiness. Believe me this
I am not a liar, I know them. They are ghosts, some of them are humans

I am also a human being… in my body. I am looking for that. Mind

Your Own Personal Demons

they show up at 2:37 a.m.
not with pitchforks,
but with your mother’s voice,
your boss’s smirk,
the girl who left in '89.

they don’t knock.
they seep in through the cracks—
in the plaster,
in the bottle,
in your goddamn spine.

they light cigarettes
with your regrets,
spit beer on your dreams,
laugh like old men in a losing bar.

you feed them
every time you say yes
when you

Face to My Demons

At the cradle of my nightmares,
My future is a horror film,
I track my ghosts,
Like a junkie in withdrawal.
I am a true clandestine calamity,
A mass grave of silent suffering,
A candelabra of pain soothed by dirty money,
I hate the human race,
And I will never have a pet.
I am a loner addicted to silence.
I only write in the
