I absolutely know there is something hiding within me It lays low in my soul which keeps my spirit at bay Oh how i keep aching for a different way of life Yet i cant get loose from its choke hold On my heart I could see death in the reflection of myself this morning And yet still I cant put the glass down that keeps that part of me hidden I plead for it to show itself So that maybe , just maybe i can get beyond it I am resisting the urge to rid myself from the creature that refuses to come forward What a coward it must be for it is not I but IT that preyed upon me What lays ahead I never know but hope somehow It beheads you YOU COWARD
