Demons

The night is dark and still 

Cold as ice, 

Stars fade into the blackness

Nothing goes bump in the night

You prowl the streets unhindered

Swaggering panther of a woman

I have demons that keep me up at night

My dreams are haunted by you

You fled into the ghostly mist

Leaving me to shiver and crave

I feel you lurking in the shadows

And hear the demons whisper in my ear

In the cold dark night

Where there is no light

Like a black panther
Stalking my dreams

The demon that keeps me up

You know you want her

To slay my demons

Slay my demons

You know you want her

To slay my demons

In the cold dark night

She will bring the light

To slay my demons
