Escape
Everywhere I go
They're following me
I can't escape them
The ones who haunt me
They call my name
And scream at me
Everyday
They steel a part of my soul
A little more each time
They fill my heart with darkness
My mind with nightmares
At night they visit me
And wrap their hands around my throat
I scream and cry
As no one hears
There's no one to save me
As my thoughts eat at my mind
They scream in my ear
And tell me I'm useless
They call me to their world-
No one will notice
I tear at my skin
As I try to cut them out
Of my soul,
Of my mind
The blood pours out of my veins
Down my wrist
As I try to escape them
But it's not enough
The demons just come back
And they laugh in my face
I cut even deeper
Trying to defeat them
But the only escape
Is to let them take my soul
