Better Demons |
Children so traumatized in the first years of life that they do not bond with |
other people |
They are children who cannot love or accept love |
Who could hurt or even kill without remorse |
Could a great deal of this be demons? |
We both know that there’s a season |
A time and place to believe in |
The strange is gonna come, and we both need it |
To give this up right now |
And there’s no easy way to say that we’ve both changed |
The life we knew, well, it won’t ever be the same |
I’m just holding on to my better demons |
And I really need them not to fail me now |
I speak in tongues, but I can never free them |
And my spirit weakens, but I won’t back down |
No holy ghost, no holy spirit |
I’m on my own right now |
Do the angels sing if you can’t hear them? |
'Cause I don’t hear a sound |
Yeah, there’s no easy way to tell you that I’m gone |
I’m just holding on to my better demons |
And I really need them not to fail me now |
I speak in tongues, but I can never free them |
And my spirit weakens, but I won’t back down |
Lead me while I wait for clouds to break |
On my own, I’ll face down all my enemies |
I’m just holding on to my better demons |
And I really need them not to fail me now |
I speak in tongues, but I can never free them |
And my spirit weakens, but I won’t back down |
In your nightmare what happens? |
I get really scared |
Where are you in the nightmare? |
What happens in the dream? |
I’m in my house upstairs |
And then what happens next? |
And then he comes upstairs and, um, hurts |
