Demon

Dream away the sickness Choking down the pain Reach into the darkness Dancing in the rain Nurse the innocence Into another place Hold them close till they cry out I find another face Wet nightmares This perverted lust is never gone Dancing with my demons In tangled webs of dawn If it dares to bleed This plaything in my arms I reach into the void Peel back brittle shards Drunken, careless words of comfort Gorge on strangled fears Gripping locks of mangled hair Should you ever show your tears Wet nightmares This perverted lust is never gone Dancing with my demons In tangled webs of dawn Through a tangled web of demons And this hideous taste of blood He will comb the night for his prey Through deep and endless mud
