My Demon (Acoustic Version)

The recent herd of nightmares, not to be taken lightly
Not only sleep perpetrates them in traitorous ways.

My solemn senses warn me, how could I feel so fine?
This new acquaintance won me over without a fight

Eyes open, bloody slumber
Sleeping side by side with scorn
Come wake me, feed my heartbeat for not to fall asleep no more.

Last slumber, bloody somber
Sets the fire up anew
So tainted, soulless ire
From the demon's point of view.

First declare your presence to let them know you're in
Then you let the harvesting begin
Somewhere in their darkness, fought to be uncrowned
and they're protected from no one
Fast protruding presence of everlasting sleep
Chaos comes to the mourning in times of the weak
Huddle in your prison to prevent your own escape
I demon rise.

Your own innocence counts for nothing then
When your heart starts to unwind, sadness comes in.

Another night of silence, the darkness in my veins
waking me from defiance, to heed my demons will.

My demon rise.
