Dancing With Demons
Dancing with demons
Alone in the dark
Where did it happen
When did it start
I reach for the verse
Instead of the blade
Am I cursed
Or just in pain
Will it end
Now or never
In a world with no bend
Family ties I sever
Although I love you
No tear will fall
There are things you can’t undo
You couldn’t even call
No words spoken
No lies told
No hearts broken
No hand to hold
When I am sinking
There’ s no lifeboat
When I was cold
There was no coat
You would watch me
As I cry
Alone in the dark where my demons lie.
Alone in the dark
Where did it happen
When did it start
I reach for the verse
Instead of the blade
Am I cursed
Or just in pain
Will it end
Now or never
In a world with no bend
Family ties I sever
Although I love you
No tear will fall
There are things you can’t undo
You couldn’t even call
No words spoken
No lies told
No hearts broken
No hand to hold
When I am sinking
There’ s no lifeboat
When I was cold
There was no coat
You would watch me
As I cry
Alone in the dark where my demons lie.
