Sometimes the demon doesn't lurk underneath the bed. Sometimes the demon doesn't live in your head. Sometimes the demon takes a human form, He lives inside your house And makes you believe, In things that can **** your dreams, He feeds you nightmares which are sickly sweet. He the sort of devil no one talks about, He gifts you a sword to fight And then chops off your arms, He tells you run and hide in fear. Takes away everything that you hold dear. He's a demon who plays with your mind, He learns your secrets and destroys your pride. He's a narcissist with a heart that pumps black blood. Pushes you around and then pulls you into the mud He's a human who lacks humanity And always treats you like a dummy.
Do you remember how he once taught you to fly and then clipped off your wings? Broke your favorite toy because it could sing? Do you remember how you once failed? And how he made you cry, Locked you in the room with no light?
Yes, there are demons that live in your heart and mind. There demons that keep you awake all night. But don't be so naive; there are demons inside your house waiting for you to fall so that they can pounce.
