I saw red today. Anger consumed every sensation of my being. Burned holes in my head, left scars in my heart. I tried to swallow that **** down, but the demon inside spit it back up and laughed in my face. Pushed me back down, said stay in your place. I decided not to fight it, figured it'd be best to make friends with the demon that burns. Guess there's always a means to an end. So the demon made himself at home and has since then grown and grown And every time I see red, no one dares to push me further and I don't blame them one bit. I'd hate for my demon to show his devilish grin.

Red
I saw red today. Anger consumed every sensation of my being. Burned holes in my head, left scars in my heart. I tried to swallow that **** down, but the demon inside spit it back up and laughed in my face. Pushed me back down, said stay in your place. I decided not to fight it, figured it'd be best to make friends with the demon that burns. Guess there's always a means to an end. So the demon made himself at home and has since then grown and grown And every time I see red, no one dares to push me further and I don't blame them one bit. I'd hate for my demon to show his devilish grin.
