The Engraved Soul

Envy, Greed, Lust and Pride
Face of the Devil from which the World can’t hide,
Let’s talk about the ones each of us own
The Demons we must face Alone.

Those inside us aren’t going anywhere
So let’s dance with them, if you Dare,
Onto the floor you slide and lead
And when chance presents, make them bleed.

They are always there, will Never be gone
Can’t be controlled, nor can we run,
What do we do with things that don’t bend?
Very simple, actually, we simply Break them.

They are your Demons, you not theirs
They are enemies, swarming like bees in their lairs,
Remember, true enemies never wait out the storm
Storms are what they bring to get you down.
