Waking the Demon

Waking the demon Do not try to conceal your lies I know there is no truth inside The words you spit are just to hide For nothing good comes from lies You will just get lost in your mind Brewing slowly the blackness becomes Overwhelming storms if deceit Ones that drag and bury you deep Crushing, smothering you need to break free But the lies have you by the throat No what can you do besides choke You can flail and scream in its grip But sorry now this one won’t slip You built all this, your own decay You woke this demon now you pay The only way is out just to say "This is it there is no other way" There coming now don’t try to fight Your body’s weekend, walk to the light All this time you have thought you deceived All this time you thought you got away Too bad everything’s not how it seems And that to you was just a dream
