My demons come for me when the lights go off
I struggle with my own internal battles and they often consume me, especially when I am alone in the dark.

Hard for me to get good sleep

One day he might need it
While I hope he never has to use the gun, it is important to be prepared for any situation where self-defense may be necessary.

And I'm not the one to try to understand
