Demons.

“You could never really win, not to say you’re born to lose. You were born to take 10th place out of 20 in the field. Mistakes flow through your veins in a mediocre way. Your life’s a living hell you’ve got gremlins in your blood cells and monsters in your bed. They’re haunting you again. Oh, it must be this place..At least that’s what you say.

You don’t love you anymore. Cast your demons aside; Keep them close enough to know what your running from. Soon you wont feel this anymore. Cast your demons aside; Keep them close enough to know that your moving on

The fire used to burn in your heart and in your eyes. You used to dream, you used to care, you used to love, you used to fight. For anything at all. You cover up your bedroom wall with who you want to be, now you’re afraid to be yourself.. So you search the mall for something else. You read magazines and watch MTV. You practiced it and everything. Oh, your dressed to impressed but you look like a drag queen.

You don’t love you anymore. Cast your demons aside; Keep them close enough to know what your running from. Soon you wont feel this anymore. Cast your demons aside; Keep them close enough to know that your moving on.

So keep your head up high, stretch inches into miles because Brooklyn wasn’t built in just a day. Focus on important things.  Be your own gun like every ghost that held you down was gone. Keep them close enough to know that your moving on.”

-Bayside

I feel like I could have written that just now except not as perfectly.
