There are times
When I find
That it’s easy to accept
The contents of my mind…

Other times
More unkind
The gale force winds
They drive me blind…

And where the truth is
I cannot say
That’s when my demons
Come out to play…

There’s such shame
Am I to blame
For those demons
I know well enough to name…

I can tell
When I’m unwell
When these demons
Put me under their spell…

And where the truth is
I cannot say
And oh
The fear it haunts
It knows my secrets
And my wants…

In the darkness
they creep and taunt
And sing in chorus
As I sit centre front…

Damn.
