demons are real
they don't tell the little kids
banishing then beneath beds
reducing them to figments of imaginations

demons are real
they didn't have to tell me
i found them on my own
they crawled out from under the bed
in the dead of night
using me as their host instead

demons are real
they teem beneath my skin
cut it and you'll see
that i bleed demons
their cries mixing with my agony

demons are real
they teem beneath my skin
poke and prod and you'll see
they shed this human skin
and roar in all their might

demons are real
they teem beneath my skin
they lurk inside my mind
and those demons pull my strings

demons are realthey teem beneath my skin they lurk inside my mindand those demons pull my strings
