Take Careful Aim

If your going to shoot my demon
please take careful aim
for I have some good inside of me
to kill that would be a shame

There's no room for error
don't let your bullet stray
for the kindness in my heart
you might unfortunately slay

I know your intentions are good
can see it in your eyes
please take careful aim
so only my demon dies
