The demons swirl around me
Like vultures do their prey.
The darkness has engulfed me,
Night never turns to day.
The innocence that I once had
It hides behind me now.
Overcome by sin and grief
In shame my head I bow.
Oh, I feel them at my feet,
they're reaching for my soul.
Like embers from a blazing fire,
My heart has turned to coal.
My angel she has left me
With wings to Heaven's gate.
My prayers they go unanswered,
I'm crying much too late.
Because I am within myself,
Diminishing thoughts they roam.
I hear them now, it's Satan's steps,
He's coming to take me home.
Fear it overtakes me
Its a pain I know so well.
There's no bright light, just doom in sight,
I'm in a living hell!

I feel that we are all living our own Hell on Earth.....
