This demon I have put to rest Has left me feeling new I feel like my burden has lifted But I'm left feeling blue This demon has been my best friend For years and years A friend that has pushed me and broke me And fixed me and healed me Brought me down from insanity Taught me how to manage my determination I have learned to control my sanity And use my passion It has helped me to grow And helped me to teach This friend has connected me with new friends Its given me the opportunity to be coached By the best coaches I have broken our friendship It's time to see how my heart does on its own It's time to make a new best friend and learn What else there is to be learned The only person I'm changing is myself And myself needs the change I am no longer in love with my demon That's been hard to admit As time goes on we may rekindle Our childhood feelings But for now, I feel as the fire is choked out And the smoke is too much for me I will come back eventually
