We each own something terrible,
But we know it not at all.
It bites at us and fights with us;
Daring us to fall.
The conscious is a fearsome beast—
Says things we hate to hear.
It growls at us and howls at us;
Warning it is near.

We each own something terrible,
But we know it not at all.
It bites at us and fights with us;
Daring us to fall.
The conscious is a fearsome beast—
Says things we hate to hear.
It growls at us and howls at us;
Warning it is near.
