My Biggest Fear
They cut my
heart
Right out of my chest
Making me believe
That the demons knew no feast
These
demons were destructive
Knocking down the life I knew
Hating everything about me,
She hated herself too
Sure, I'll
play, I'll laugh,
I'll sing some songs,
But that pain is always there
Because it's been here all long.
And when
the darkness comes
With its all-consuming power,
It slowly takes my soul
Hour by dreadful hour.
You would never know it,
The constant pain I feel,
Because in the light of day
It almost isn't real, I can say.
