There’s a demon in my head,

He’s saying things that shouldn’t be said

Do it, He whispered

Just once, He said

Release me, He yells

No one will care in the morning light, He chuckles

I put headphones in,

Turn the music up

His voice echoes louder

There’s no way out! Just once

I run my hands threw my hair,

Fall to the ground

Put my head to my knees and cry

Is there a way out?

If i grab the blade,

Who will be my saving grace

The demon is only pain

It shouldn’t be so hard to face..
