| Children so traumatized in the first years of life that they do not bond with
|
| other people
|
| They are children who cannot love or accept love
|
| Who could hurt or even kill without remorse
|
| Could a great deal of this be demons?
|
| We both know that there’s a season
|
| A time and place to believe in
|
| The strange is gonna come, and we both need it
|
| To give this up right now
|
| And there’s no easy way to say that we’ve both changed
|
| The life we knew, well, it won’t ever be the same
|
| I’m just holding on to my better demons
|
| And I really need them not to fail me now
|
| I speak in tongues, but I can never free them
|
| And my spirit weakens, but I won’t back down
|
| No holy ghost, no holy spirit
|
| I’m on my own right now
|
| Do the angels sing if you can’t hear them?
|
| 'Cause I don’t hear a sound
|
| Yeah, there’s no easy way to tell you that I’m gone
|
| I’m just holding on to my better demons
|
| And I really need them not to fail me now
|
| I speak in tongues, but I can never free them
|
| And my spirit weakens, but I won’t back down
|
| Lead me while I wait for clouds to break
|
| On my own, I’ll face down all my enemies
|
| I’m just holding on to my better demons
|
| And I really need them not to fail me now
|
| I speak in tongues, but I can never free them
|
| And my spirit weakens, but I won’t back down
|
| In your nightmare what happens?
|
| I get really scared
|
| Where are you in the nightmare? |
| What happens in the dream?
|
| I’m in my house upstairs
|
| And then what happens next?
|
| And then he comes upstairs and, um, hurts |
