I typed at the speed of my sprinting mind Trying to explain what lives in my head But after a while, come morning time I have slight hope that he is dead.
But every evening Brings to me more suffering As I realize nothing can **** The demon that calls itself part of me.
When my mind is groggy He wakes and speaks for me Treating all my friends shoddily And ruining what love remains for me
The man that speaks from inside Is like a cancer growing within As constantly he will deride My attempts to change away from sin
I have no name for this monster And I cannot claim that he is an excuse But I know I'm not this awful other And a decent explanation is impossible to produce.
An explanation Remember when? An explanation Drove me to no end?
Insanity caused by the simplest of statements. That's not me. And yet this monster can escape any containments And he is always angry.
It's my turn to give an explanation A truth that brings small satisfaction But you of all deserve to know This monster coming when it rains on my brow
I cannot call him my delusion For surely he is no illusion I cannot call him my depression For surely that was fixed with confession.
WHO ARE YOU? why do you live within me so? Tearing into me, making me blue I just wanted to watch the **** show.
Are you done now? Can you please Leave ME ALONE NOW let me have peace
Breaking my heart and the hearts of my friends I send you away as fast as I can I'm leaving now I"m taking a stand And so I exit Stage up to heaven And you can leave Stage straight down to hell.
I've decided to write about something we all struggle with, temptation and aggression, I hope you enjoy.
