Night demons

lyrics by: Allan P Stevens
Written on Nov 19, 2017

-
Tell me, who you are
Tell me why you torment me
Always here, you push so hard
Never leaving me to find my peace
You’re forever in my face
With those dark thoughts of doubt
A creature of torment and hate
It’s time to throw you out
-
What did I do to you
Never invited you around
Always tried to face the truth
Still you seek to bring me down
Why don’t you just fade away
Go quietly without a sound
Dissipate into empty space
Find a deep hole in the ground
-
Night demons you are
Feeding on my brain
You appear when I’m sleeping
Trying to drive me insane
But, I won’t let you win
I won’t let you take control
You won’t ever break me down
You will never take my soul
-
Late at night as the darkness falls
I can feel you within my head
At times I see you on the wall
Or as shadows across my bed
-
I got wise to the tricks you play
I’m leaving you far behind
I aint playing your evil games
You got to move out of my life
-
Night demons you are
Feeding on my brain
You appear when I’m sleeping
Trying to drive me insane
But, I won’t let you win
I won’t let you take control
You won’t ever break me down
You will never take my soul
-
I won’t let you win
I won’t let you take control
You won’t ever break me down
You will never take my soul
