The demon in me emerges
I’m still searching the clouds trying to find my head
The one that’s damaged, the one that’s dead
I lost it all on one special day
“Can’t you see that I’m hurting?” I tried to say
But you never did listen
As you watched my eyes glisten
With tears that will be shed In my special place
So I’ll play your role, wipe them from my face
By myself I will fight these growing urges
Until the demon inside of me re-emerges
