How am I anything more Than an inflated sack Packed with meat and bones For this monster to Lick his lips and gnaw on? I am the epitome of This demon's lavish feast, The one that whispers to me Words that roast my mind And he keeps on adding spice, Waiting for the chance To rip a chunk from my heart; But that would be too easy, He likes the way my tears taste And why would he end his pleasure? The demon plays with his food: This is how I am devoured By this ruthless thing I call Depression. Some days I am so done, I just whisper, "Bon apétite".

I'm His Holiday Feast
How am I anything more Than an inflated sack Packed with meat and bones For this monster to Lick his lips and gnaw on? I am the epitome of This demon's lavish feast, The one that whispers to me Words that roast my mind And he keeps on adding spice, Waiting for the chance To rip a chunk from my heart; But that would be too easy, He likes the way my tears taste And why would he end his pleasure? The demon plays with his food: This is how I am devoured By this ruthless thing I call Depression. Some days I am so done, I just whisper, "Bon apétite".
It eats you up and sometimes you just can't feel human anymore.
