I remember when i was a child
I used to feel sad when my parents made promises they wouldn't keep.
I used to feel sad when daddy punished me for a little mistake.
I used to feel sad when my crush failed to notice me.
I used to feel sad when I wasn't taken seriously because of my age.

Today, it's a whole different ball game
Where there was sadness, there is now depression.
And for no particular reasons too!

Maybe it's just my demons coming to hunt me for everything I did wrong yesterday.
Maybe it's me telling myself I am not as good as people think me to be.
It goes like, you're really screwed up, and your life sucks.
Or maybe it's my Karma for failing the people who relied on me.
Maybe is my demon coming back to hunt me for I am slowly becoming the man I used to hate.
Or maybe me thinking of my next evil did, which I really don't want to do.

When will this pain stop?
When will I finally get inner peace?
How did I get here?
