So I Accidentally Deleted This One

i hear them at night
clawing and scratching
no one can know
how the demons are hatching
i look around
only to see
the demons i thought of
only were me
i try to ignore them
try not to see
try not to listen
try not to be
i turn on my music
only to find
that all i can hear is
their voice in my mind
i pinch myself
and hope it’s a dream
but say to myself
it’s all what it seems?
i realize the monster
buried within
is not just a monster
it’s here in my skin
been there so long
that all i can do
is invite it deeper
and sick it on you
