The Devil Be Damned

 
let ashes rain down upon my head  
I'm in the land of pain  
anxiety is a killer  
a cunt I can't live with  
 
I've tried to kill her  
eating pills & drinking  
drug cocktails  
mix it & put the devil to bed  
just to have her come for my throat  
the next day  
 
I can't even write when I feel like this  
though I press on  
because if I stop now  
my demons will eat me alive  
 
do you feel me?  
 
jumping off the page  
in a panic  
stark & raw  
click go my brain's neurons  
electricity shooting up my spine  
makes me want to scream  
 
the devil be damned  
I will ride on  
through the insanity  
take inventory  
name it  
it's addiction  
 
I'm an addict  
always have been  
always will be  
the beast is right behind me  
breathing down my back  
clawing at me  
temptation is a bitch  
& I live it everyday
