Deadly Demon
I will creep up on you when you least expect
In order to destroy you no tactic I’ll neglect
Sneaky underhand plots and ploys, stealth do I employ
Destroying your health and confidence to rob you of all joy
A dagger thrust in your self trust I leave no stone unturned
I will bring you low my friend until your lesson’s learned
For I’m the greatest enemy you will ever know
No hiding place or act of grace will deflect my deadly blow
I am the decimator of your world, but you never ever see
How I chain you to my service, I’ll never set you free
I am the killer of your dreams an evil faceless stranger
But you refuse to recognise me or face my deadly danger
I leave you screaming with frustration as I make your best plans fail
You thrash in the bog of my morass so pitiful, weak and frail
Who are you deadly demon? I hear your angry shout
I'm the one who’s bred inside your head I am your own self doubt
