Demons

Eyes wide open
Lungs burning
Legs pumping
Heart racing

Let me try to run from my demons
It’s like trying to outrun your shadow
Sunlight fading and making a way for darkness
Time is running out

Teeth gleaming
Eyes glowing
Shallow breathing
Clock ticking

Don’t let them catch me
They grab at my shirt
Trying to pull me into their misery
I fight to get myself free

Nails clawing
Painful cries
Conquering demons
Fighting shadows
