It is time again for all my demons
To come visit me
When I am alone
I search for my bones
This is all I will ever be
When I am under earth and stone

I greet them like old friends
Always by my side
Never abandoned me
When I ran into dead ends
Soothed my fright
Showing sharp teeth with glee

I can feel them sitting on my shoulder
Weighing me down
Each day they grew bolder
Dragging me to the ground
My hands are getting colder
While I hold them close to me

I could not let go
Although it was freezing me
I even tightened the hold
If not for me then neither they should be free
