I.
There's a demon in me
Waiting to get free
Day after day I curb it
...
Into The Darkness
I.
There's a demon in me
Waiting to get free
Day after day I curb it
One day it may get free
And eat everyone I love
So I try not to let you see
That it is really just me
I wasn't lying about it do you see
When I close my eyes
I feel it near me
Almost breathing down my neck
What malice they cry to me
Yes malice that you can see
But I can't be free from it
This figure that haunts me
That takes me in my sleep
That nibbles at my flesh
So much I feel dead
II.
There's a demon
Inside me
Wanting to be free
But I hold him back
He tries to stand
And I slap him down
I won't let him have control
If I do all hope is lost
Then there's no reason to live
I hold him back
So he would infect those I love
If I let him go
He may kill them
So I hold back my love one
And tell them lies
Like I'm alright
I'm fine
That I'll always be here
And I'll always love them
If I am the demon
Can I love them?
I think not
But how would I know
III.
There's a demon
Closer to the surface
I grab him back
But he gets free
What can I do?
All hope is lost
Like the final beats
These broken hearts I can't mend
These wounds I can't tend
Let him die in an empty alley
But he takes me instead
We go together
Into the darkness
Into the madness
