Lyrics
There’s a space in my head
A place that I dread
Where fear spends most of its time
There’s a void in my mind
That’s so hard to find
One day so absurd, next sublime

My mind's eye all I see
Is chaos and debris
My reality at odds with the world
Take heed of mothers wit
For me I admit
Ordinary has never unfurled

I talk with my demons, but do they hear
Cloak me in darkness, so I no longer care
I walk with my demons, side by side
No escape though, lord knows I've tried

Is it me who's to blame
For being insane
Whose world offers up the truth
Would life still be the same
Would I still be insane
Had I drank from the fountain of youth

So now leave me in peace
And pray that I cease
To exist in this tortured state
I'm too weary to fight
And welcome the night
Let the darkness determine my fate

I talk with my demons, but do they hear
Cloak me in darkness, so I no longer care
I walk with my demons, side by side
No escape though, lord knows I've tried

Too much talk of better days
Poison flows through my veins
Out of darkness comes light
Before it fades into night
My shadow is all that remains
But whispers turn into shouts
Hope flickers, then flickers out
This weary heart, cold and numb
Yearns for a rising sun
But dawn seems forever to come

I talk with my demons, but do they hear
Cloak me in darkness, so I no longer care
I walk with my demons, side by side
No escape though, lord knows I've tried

This weary heart, cold and numb
Yearns for a rising sun
But dawn seems forever to come
