Patience Connelley - The Darkness Inside

When your emotions are full to the brim
And your mind can't take it anymore
You try to fight back
But you can't win
You know you can't
Because I am you
I'm the voices inside your head
The demons that lurk in your soul
I know all your strenghths and weaknesses
I'm always with you
Inside your mind
I am the fear
I am the sorrow
I am the reason you are drowning in darkness
I am like the disease in your body
The reason that your heart is torn and you hardly have a heart at all
I am the hands around your neck
The knife in your back
The cuts on your arms and legs
I take all your happiness away
I am everything you regret and deny
And I'll be here
Until you rot in the ground

Patience Connelley
