Demon

I don't know what's gotten into me

That I've pushed everyone away

But here I am trying to plea

Yet I feel as though my life's already at bay

I have so much emotion buried inside

Yet I can't find a reason why

And all my friendships that were most divine

Are quickly falling and starting to die

I want to run away

And I need to find my way

I want to laugh all day

But I need you here to stay

But I run in the wrong direction

I've chosen the wrong path

And it seems that in order t laugh, I need permission

So why is it that happiness I cannot have?

You don't understand, you don't know my pain

when something goes wrong, it's nothing but pouring rain

With no light, and no sun

I have no might, so I'm done

Like looking for something that's not there

But you know it's taunting you

Following as you go everywhere

And there's nothing you can do

Everywhere you turn, you're surrounded

Everytime it burns, you've been bounded

With no escape, and no freedom

This pain I drape is my greatest demon
