a broken kid i been raised

fooled by the fact that i'm helpless

regardless of my fears

adapting to the new atmosphere

i tried to heal my wounds

i got lost in life's woods

and then returned to find my home

monsters didn't scare me

but instead they were in me

sometimes they win

sometimes i do

a shaking hand dart me

tried to fix what left in me

'i can protect you from your own demons' it said

after a while from the non-said

my demons were released again

carrying revenge with them

the hit hurts even more this time

teaching me not to trust hands again

covering myself

drowning into the utter darkness

cause it felt like home for so long

swallowing pills to forget

to escape and then regret

i've been lonesome all my life

and that's been already told

rejection and then examination

i don't need meditation

it ain't that hard to feel the satisfaction

we just need distraction

in the darkness of the night

when old fears come creeping from the past

and no one is there to watch backs

that's when your monster side appears

and the devil in you transpires.
