You’re always there no matter what
haunting me from my past
I try to fight and do what’s right
but the happiness never lasts

You’re there in my morning routine
when I get up and take my shower
in my afternoon nap you take control
who knew you had such power

The worst of all is in the night
that’s when you are the strongest
with terrors that feel so real
my nights they are the longest

You’re in my head with every thought
accompanied by guilt and shame
twisting everything to dark
playing your wicked game

You’re evilness is spreading wide
I can feel it trickle through my veins
when I look into the mirror
I can see eyes filled with pain

The scary thing that I’ve learned
is that you can only be
if I keep my heart dark
and let you live within me
