Oh my sweet demon how I adore you so We have ridden together many years Your whispers comfort me when I’m low You create and extinguish all my fears
You bring me the anxiety that’s grown closely To my racing heart and dark mind You bring me the shadows I love so dearly Why do you have to be so sweet and kind?
I have grown up with you by my side At first my enemy now ... best friend My heart is dark from where you reside Leave! I ask, but this rule you will not bend
My sweet demon you are in my head Taunting me and speaking sweet terrors I cannot **** you for you sleep in my bed You live in me because of all my errors
Demon, you bring familiarity in the night The shadows that follow us I know too well They are our friends too, of that I’m right Spinning me forever, a never ending carousel
We all have our demons, those things we call baggage, or flaws. We carry them, we hold them, we fight them. Yet, they never truly leave us do they? They taunt us for all our lives.
