Torment

There’s a demon on my right shoulder

And an angel on my left

They push and pull all through the night

And never let me rest

 

He tugs at all my fears and doubts

Then throws them at my feet

She tells me to live with courage

And things will be alright

 

He taunts and teases with every breath

I do naught but listen

She covers my ears when he begins

And says he is a liar

 

He laughs right in my face

When things are going tough

She makes me look at her instead

And says I’m doing fine

 

He shouts out loud and clear

That I just play pretend

She sings to me in her sweet way

‘just you wait and see’
