There are demons in your closet It is obvious to me You left the door wide open Setting those ******** free Anger lashed out first With razor sharp claws Shredding the unsuspecting Without hesitation or pause Beneath him is resentment Forever locked up tight Hidden within for years Now more than ever, ready to fight Betrayal weighs heavy Taking up the most room Can’t sweep it under the rug There isn’t a big enough broom Don’t disregard the guilt Or forget about shame These two big players Are leaders of the game Amidst the whirl wind of chaos And the fury of rage A broken heart exposed through fear Makes its way to center stage Vulnerability is waiting She can keep your closet clean Nourish you with love Making those demons less mean As the spotlight shifts its focus There seems nowhere to hide Will you crawl back into darkness? Or simply swallow your pride?

Demons in your closet
There are demons in your closet It is obvious to me You left the door wide open Setting those ******** free Anger lashed out first With razor sharp claws Shredding the unsuspecting Without hesitation or pause Beneath him is resentment Forever locked up tight Hidden within for years Now more than ever, ready to fight Betrayal weighs heavy Taking up the most room Can’t sweep it under the rug There isn’t a big enough broom Don’t disregard the guilt Or forget about shame These two big players Are leaders of the game Amidst the whirl wind of chaos And the fury of rage A broken heart exposed through fear Makes its way to center stage Vulnerability is waiting She can keep your closet clean Nourish you with love Making those demons less mean As the spotlight shifts its focus There seems nowhere to hide Will you crawl back into darkness? Or simply swallow your pride?
