All my demons are liars
placing fear into me
they tell me this is forever
and never shall I be free

Thereโ€™s anxiety banging at my door
giving me lots of worries
he has a monstrous grip and
with one hand my fun he does seize

Depression slips right in
like a serpent on the loose
always telling me life should end
and to stick my head in a noose

Bipolar jumps around the room
making each wave greater than the last
Hypo-mania is her companion
with long nights thinking of the past

PTSD sits in the corner and waits
for the opportune moment
just when you think youโ€™re safe
he pulls his gruesome stunt

Addictionโ€™s constant nagging
to let her com on in
will have me in a bottle
or a blade dragging across my skin

Yes all my demons are liars
theyโ€™re constantly in my head
dealing with them every day
fills me with never ending dread
