Convalescence

The demons inside me are holding tight
A place where the darkness does not subside
Look into my eyes
Hell bent and starving to find a sign
A sign of light
Secure the flame inside of me
So I can endure through travesty
Secure the flame inside of me
So I can burn my deficiency
God, it’s me who’s drunk on the steps of a church
I destroyed everything
Anything that meant something
Is this where I’ll call home?
The devils inside begin to rot away
The torches ignite their hides to light my way
Look into my eyes
Hell bent and starving to find a sign
Secure the flame inside of me
So I can endure through travesty
Secure the flame inside of me
So I can burn my deficiency
Drawing a line into the sand
I’ll make my stand here
Drawing a line into the sand
This is who I am
A sign of light
Secure the flame inside of me
So I can endure through travesty
Secure the flame inside of me
So I can burn my deficiency
In the face of adversity
This is who I am
