THERE'S A DEMON IN MY HEAD.
IT'S LURING ME TO MY DEATHBED,
I CRY FOR HELP BUT NO ONE HEARS
MY CRIES, MY SCREAMS, MY FALLING TEARS.

THERE'S A DEMON HEART.
AND IT'S SLOWLY TEARING ME APART.
THOUGH THE DEMON CANNOT SPEAK
IT'S WORDS SEEM TO TURN ME WEAK

THERE'S A DEMON IN MY SOUL
IT'S DEVOURING ME WHOLE
THE BLADES HELP TO BLEED ME DRY
WHO WILL HEAR MY FINAL GOODBYE?

THERE'S A DEMON WAITING FOR ME TO COME
IT'S MANAGED TO TURN ME COMPLETELY NUMB
I'VE WRITTEN MY FINAL GOODBYE NOTE
THE BOOZE IS BURNING IN MY THROAT.

BUT I WILL NEVER LET THIS DEMON WIN THE WAR
YOU'RE MY WORST NIGHTMARE, I KNOW YOU ARE.
BUT I'M STILL STANDING HERE, FOR ALL TO SEE
AND I'M SCREAMING "YOU'LL NEVER TAKE MY WORDS FROM ME"
