Demon Named Me

Demon Named Me

My lips, my mouth, my gums bleed

Torn to pieces by none other than me

Behind this innocent smile a demon does hide

Except from those who can see through my lie

I'm sorry to those who I love like family

To those who have keep me from insanity

When I leave you I hurt you

But when I stay I just hurt you more

These tears roll down my cheeks

As the demon me speaks

I tried so hard to hide him

Under a shinny big grin

But if I hurt him I hurt myself

In burying him I choke myself

So I'm sorry if I hurt you

I'm sorry if I cant leave

For my family of friends are my meds

They help me go to bed

So if you want me gone I understand

Just don't expect me to come back again

I'm selfish

I'm cruel

But I'm losing hope

You are all the one thing that keeps me afloat

So if you want me to leave I will

Because I've had my fill

I cant stand the mental pain

And theres nothing left in life for me to gain
