Darkness

Escape

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
