They wake us in the morning
Steal the air from our throat
Making us choke in our lungs
Hit us with the same emotions
Strip us bare from love
Having to face our fears throughout each day
They manipulate our brains
Mixing up the wires
Bathe within our blood
Make us conspire
They follow us on each path
Stalk us through the day and night
Trip us up at any chance
Falling at every fright
They join us in the bath
Where our tears drain
Lurk behind the shadows
Settle in the corners of our brains
They sneak within the sheets
Mutter in our ears
Sit at the end of the bed
Ready to possess
Attack us in our dreams
The only place of peace
They sleep under the bed
But aren’t truly to rest
Only we can do that
If we’re brave
Their the lotion we put on our skin
They sink deep within
Their the food we eat
Digested
Making our organs weep
Their only our demons
We’ve been betrayed by our sins
We all have them
Only you choose if they win
