My demons came last night They caught me when my sword was In its sheath and my armour hung On the wall, didn't I loathe myself? They came in black gums and white teeth Could it not lend some respite
For a distressing spirit? My demons mirrored my piano last night My fingers were gateways to torment And through my arms they gloated — Black and white betrayed me Until my guardian angel came
Through the mist of my eyes And the fog in my brain — She clothed me in my armour Oh! They did tremble in that hour From whence they came they fled.
Tale of how haunting shadows of the past came and were conquered
