Demons

My existence is corroded
I played hard -- my hand's since folded

Memories fill my dreams
Turned nightmares now, everything no longer like it seems

I want to run, I want to hide
Can't escape, this beast's inside

You need just look through my eyes
That's where this demon lies

I dug my own grave
Through that masquerade

I got too close
I thought it harmed us both

But while I await my next curtain call
Looks like you've got it all

I need to let you go
Counter punch this nasty blow

You replaced me in a flash
It's left an ugly gash

I don't want to be mad at you
But the pain's too difficult to be rational through

You moved on, I know
I need to let you go

You never needed me
Just any girl and you were free

Too invested in us
Now left to wait for my bus
