You unleashed your demons on me Your deepest darkness Sent to consume me You released it quietly They slid through the back door So as not to ruin the image Of the landscape in the front yard I was not ready to fight off your demons And you knew Innocence Can be taken very easily But my hands clutched it tightly I held on for so long But your demons were strong Dressed like angels They quickly lost their capes And unleashed themselves You watched and you knew Your cheek was turned yet your eyes watched Was I an easy target? Left alone Helpless You ushered your demons back in One day my dear They will come out the front And your house will not be safe

Unleashed Demons
You unleashed your demons on me Your deepest darkness Sent to consume me You released it quietly They slid through the back door So as not to ruin the image Of the landscape in the front yard I was not ready to fight off your demons And you knew Innocence Can be taken very easily But my hands clutched it tightly I held on for so long But your demons were strong Dressed like angels They quickly lost their capes And unleashed themselves You watched and you knew Your cheek was turned yet your eyes watched Was I an easy target? Left alone Helpless You ushered your demons back in One day my dear They will come out the front And your house will not be safe
