Cross another of the list
Of things I've ****** up
Still wonder if I can ever stop
Seems I'm always just to ******

Try my best to keep them at bay
Try to push them farther away
Seems I gotta start to practice what I preach
Just so I can keep my demons out of reach

Seems it wasn't to long ago
That I had it all, in the palm of my hand
'Till all the ******* reach a point
A point at which I could no longer stand

The so called "higher power" can't keep them at bay
Not today, no not today
Time to Move!

As the darkness pulls me to its hole
Swallows me up and spits me out
Except now I live without a soul

Seems like I couldn't keep them at bay
Please just listen to what I have to say
To what I have to preach
Seems like I'm within their reach

Go away and stay there
I can't handle another scare
Hit bottom, real low
Should I take it slow?

Just to keep my demons away
To keep them, keep them at bay
