Demons

You've laid down the weapons

You still spread the disease

And now you make commitments

You couldn't possibly keep

You love playing the victim

You love the sympathy

And in your place of solace

There's never honesty

Something I need to tell them

Not that it would change their minds

You polished your reputation

They've never seen the other side

Take off the mask, your faded design

Break off the chains, your cross to bear

Shake off the demons left in your mind

You take them everywhere

You've got a cross on your forehead

You crave the people to see

How you can open up their vaults

With your skeleton key

Nothing that you could tell me

The past could never change my mind

You built up my expectations

And let me down every time

Take off the mask, your faded design

Break off the chains, your cross to bear

Shake off the demons left in your mind

You take them everywhere

Take off the mask, your faded design

Break off the chains, your cross to bear

Shake off the demons left in your mind

You take them everywhere

Last year, you stole it

Was broken, no reflections

These words I'm reading

Paint a thousand pictures

Take off the mask you're hiding behind

Shake off the demons left in your mind

You take them everywhere

Take off the mask, your faded design

Break off the chains, your cross to bear

Shake off the demons left in your mind

You take them everywhere

Stop hiding

It's your cross to bear

Shake off the demons left in your mind

You take them everywhere
