They're coming... can't you hear?
The demons footsteps come closer to me,
they're whispers growing louder,
haunting me with fear.
They won't leave me alone,
why won't they just go away?
"come with us" they say,
"you don't belong here anyway."

"You're not worthy of this life, why don't you just grab that knife."
"Just one cut, that's all you need, keep on going until you bleed."
I try to run but i can't,
trapped and alone in the dark.
I try to scream but nothing comes out,
where has my voice gone? Why can't i shout?

Can somebody save me,
please just help.
Get me out of this hell,
I feel like I'm drowning,
suffocating behind the tears of a clown.
Somebody come and save me from myself.
