What does it matter to you? My screams mean nothing to you. Clawing, scratching, scrambling for something, anything to cling to. ****** fingers and blind eyes; no one else can hear these cries. My mind: shattered, broken, defeated, smeared on the floor for all to see. The only voice I hear in the dark - my Demon with his painful remarks. Words ring off the walls; he speaks velvet Lies into my ears for weeks. Humanely malicious; he tears my mind asunder. Lusciously venomous; he drags my broken body under. There is no cure, no escape; he is my twisted fate. When I am vulnerable, he crawls to my side. There is no one to tell me otherwise. So what does it matter to you? My screams never meant anything to you.

The Demon In My Head
What does it matter to you? My screams mean nothing to you. Clawing, scratching, scrambling for something, anything to cling to. ****** fingers and blind eyes; no one else can hear these cries. My mind: shattered, broken, defeated, smeared on the floor for all to see. The only voice I hear in the dark - my Demon with his painful remarks. Words ring off the walls; he speaks velvet Lies into my ears for weeks. Humanely malicious; he tears my mind asunder. Lusciously venomous; he drags my broken body under. There is no cure, no escape; he is my twisted fate. When I am vulnerable, he crawls to my side. There is no one to tell me otherwise. So what does it matter to you? My screams never meant anything to you.
