I stood on a bridge

In silence and fear

For those demons of darkness

Drove me way out here

They cut out my heart

and convince me

That they know best

They always lurk in the shadows

Just out of sight

Waiting to come out

When the time is right

These demons are destructive

Knocking down the life I knew

Turning it upside down and inside out

Until I no longer knew what to do

These demons although invisible

Are not a fairytale

They live in my mind

And leave a trail of havoc

I’m at the end of the bridge

About to end the fight’

Yet I can’t make the last step

And I don’t know why

I can’t be weak

I have to try

I will fight them another night
