Post 415: Demons (10/3/09)

Demons (9/4/09 c, 10/3/09 w)

I know everything

Everything is not right
Sometimes it’s so hard to get through the night
But morning can be
Another reality that can be more disappointing

I try to fight the demons in my mind

But sometimes I can’t find
I can’t find a reason to carry on
To face another day with a love that
A love that has eluded me
I try to fight my demons
To keep going on

Sometimes I don’t know if it’s true

If it’s true that life can get better
Because every time that life seems to improve
It just seems to build me up
Just to tear me down
And people wonder why my default expression is a frown

I try to fight the demons in my mind

But sometimes I can’t find
I can’t find a reason to carry on
To face another day with a love that
A love that has eluded me
I try to fight my demons
To keep going on

Maybe I should just give in

And let the demons win
Would it be so wrong
To just stop going on

Because time has never been kind to me
And there is nothing that makes me think
Things can improve
There will never be someone to make me feel alive
So maybe I should give up the fight

I try to fight the demons in my mind

But sometimes I can’t find
I can’t find a reason to carry on
To face another day with a love that
A love that has eluded me
I try to fight my demons
To keep going on
