Lying here restless
Awaiting sweet slumber
Remnants of long days
About tomorrow I wonder

If the weather is gentle
And the mood is calm
Will I stand againist demons
A pillar so strong

Or instead will I quiver
Succombed by my fear
That others may judge me
Unaware of my tears

What has been hidden
Alone in my shame
Things never spoken
Of which I am to blame

My secrets are deadly
Killing once happy lives
If read aloud
In remorse I would die

My demons will haunt me
Of this I am sure
Till truth is uncovered
Discomfort I'll endure

The things in my mind
Pieces of my past
My burdens to bare
My mental trash

Will not break me down
Or force me to quit
I'll awake to a new day
With my fire still lit
