Demons

Until you bleed
Until you please my darkest wishes
Until you beg me to forgive your selfish actions.

I will be watching
Tracking every single motion.

Until you pray
Till you confess all of your sins
Until you recognise your lies and broken promises
I will be gone
But those in chains of your cell
Your hate.

Now
Now is the time
No more lies.

And they dance in your head
Demons polish your prophetic masquerade
And they dance in your head
Nothing good comes from obsessive entities.

I hear the cries you hide behind
The words you scream
Manipulation is your weapon
How does that feel?
Reflection of the misery consuming your sanity
Your dreams.

Now
Now is the time
No more lies
Now
Now is the time
No more selfish lies.

And they dance in your head
Demons polish your prophetic masquerade
And they dance in your head
Nothing good comes from obsessive entities.

Painful at first
I often found myself wondering -
How anyone can act in such a destructive and selfish way
But when I looked at the big picture
I saw the misery that led you to these actions
The strength, love, and light that will overcome that
And the way you must feel now
So I asked myself
Will I ever want to exchange our goals, our lives?
No, never.

This golden fabric suits you well
But I can see under that shell
This crown has always been
Heavy on your head.

And they dance in your head
Demons polish your prophetic masquerade
And they dance in your head
Nothing good comes from obsessive entities.
