(Contest) There Falls a Lonely Tear

An angel on one shoulder
Whispers things into my ears
A demon on the other
Playing on my many fears

Be free dear child be free

The angel says to me

Why fight anymore? just die.

The demon makes me see

 

And neither here will compromise

No, neither will agree

I'm scared and don't know what to do

They just won't let me free

 

Where can I turn when those up high

Will fight and argue here?

And as I watch the world go by

There falls a lonely tear
