The monster within

I feel empty
I feel lost
I don’t know where to begin

The pain that I cause
Brings me to tears
I don’t know when it will end

I feel empty
I feel lost
I don’t know where to begin

I can’t keep the anger down
It burns under my skin
The pain that I cause
Brings me to tears
I just want it to to end

I want to find peace
To calm my soul
And defeat the monster within

I feel empty
I feel lost
I don’t know how this will end

All my life I have fought the demon
With pills, prayers, and alcohol
But it still scratch through the walls

I meditate to still the beast
But the monster isn’t sedated
It’s only lying in wait
For a helpless victim searching for love

I feel empty
I feel lost
I don’t know where to begin

The pain that I cause
Brings me to tears
When will it all end
