Doing Fine

I'm doing fine, doing fine
But still they find me, plague my mind
Their demon fingers trail a thought
Thoughts I thought I had forgot
In the shadow, the cusp of sight
The dark things that move in the night
Never alone, always watched
Trying to incant, positivity taught
For the moment when I'm weak
Wreak the havoc that they seek
Outskirts of reality they creep
Breaking in their darkness seeps
Inky black clouds suffocate
All I can breathe and in take
Once they get you, they own your mind
But I'm okay, I'm doing fine

I Am You

I make you feel so insecure, I know your secrets, You're not pure, I know what you do when alone, In monotone, I claim your home.

Delirious with poisoned mind,. The room is one dark blur,. Cup of toxins in one hand,. And sleeping tablets on the floor,. Soaked wires in petroleum,. And cut the phone cords short halfway,.

Shadows - Silhouettes

When shadows become silhouettes, It's your mind playing with regrets. Those dark memories, darker still, Replaying, over and over, that last kill.

Shadows

They stalk me, The shadows. They know I've had a deal with darkness, And they want more. They're on the walls, On the floor.

Devils

I'm stuck between two devils, And darkness seems to lurk, I can see the whole build up, Of their sly and evil work, I'm stuck between two devils, Their eyes seem set on me, I can tell it's something...
