Recognized my demons br Identified my fears br br Attempted to rise towards the gods br But fell upon deafened ears br br Enveloped by the abominations teeth br As they tightly surrounded me br br The venom burnt br As I landed in its putrid belly br br Swallowed me whole br Made of me a feast br br I staggered, but never lost hope br As I headed for the heart of the beast br br Some moment seemed dark br With no hope for a future br br But whatever doesn't kill you br Can only make you strongerbr br Daniel fairfieldbr br
