• They follow me around,

    Making my heart beat,

    As it is my demons,

    That I try to defeat.



    Each lie I have told,

    Adds to the chains

    That pull down my body,

    And the evil it contains.



    Guilt overcomes me

    As I ask it to dance,

    Maybe the demons will

    Give me a second chance.



    Each time I cause pain

    For the ones who care,

    It makes my life

    Drop into deeper despair.



    I should not be ghastly

    and nor should I sin,

    As my past will haunt me

    As it scars my skin.



    But I know that even

    The best of girls

    Have a chain of darkness

    That follows their curls.



    No person is perfect,

    But at least I can try,

    To become someone better,

    And a great ally.



    Haunted I am,

    By the demons of misdeed,

    And scaring them away

    Will help me succeed.
