Lyrics
Demons Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I know you're alone
In the dark, all alone
Underneath the covers
Hiding from the demons
That came for your soul.
They might be over in the closet
They might be underneath your bed
They might be just outside your window, baby
Or maybe just inside your head.
But if you let me stay over
I'll try to keep you safe
I've got an army of skeletons
To chase your demons away.
I know that you're scared
You're in the dark, so scared
Simply terrified, no one'll hear you screaming
If they could would they care?
There's only one way to find out
I pray that day never comes
For that would mean the ending of you, baby
The end of you, my love.
But if you let me stay over
I'll try to keep you safe
I've got an army of skeletons
To chase your demons away.
And baby, I can tell you've been crying
Oh baby, I know you've been lying to me
Yes indeed.
Oh baby, I can tell you don't sleep no more
Oh baby, believe me I've been there before.
If you let me stay over
I'll try to keep you safe
I've got an army of skeletons
To chase your demons away.
