(Extended Musical Intro) (Verse 1) I fell asleep in a warm white room Window was open a crack, rain on the glass I was halfway through a perfect dream When a dark shadow stepped right past It had a determined face and a forced grin Said my name out loud like it knew my darkest sin I tried to move, but my hands felt like stone I’m awake in my comfy bed but I wasn’t alone (Pre-Chorus) And it leaned in slow With a smile too wide Said, "You know I came For that thing you desperately hide" My chest collapsed The air in the room went thin I could feel my racing pulse An uneasy feeling was setting in (Chorus) The demon’s delight It came in during the night It knows where I will break It knows everything I hide The demon’s delight It laughs hysterically at my fright I woke up in a cold sweat shaking The images are trapped in my eyes The demon’s delight (Verse 2) It scrawled a message all over the wall Like a rouge soul in a church bell tower Said, "I own the blood in your veins And I’m coming back for more in the next hour" It whispered threats in a velvety tone Promised eternal hell fire for every spoken lie I begged the ceiling, I begged the floor But the room did nothing and watched me cry (Pre-Chorus) And it leaned in slow With a smile too wide Said, "You know I came For that thing you desperately hide" My chest collapsed The air in the room went thin I could feel my racing pulse An uneasy feeling was setting in (Chorus) The demon’s delight It came in during the night It knows where I will break It knows everything I hide The demon’s delight It laughs hysterically at my fright I woke up in a cold sweat shaking The images are trapped in my eyes The demon’s delight (Verse 3) I huddle under the blankets in fear With a voice speaking to me gentle and sweet It said, "Sleep again my dear If you want some sort of relief" My throat got dry and locked up My skin went pale and numb Then the whole damn bedroom went crazy As I started to hear a rhythmic hum (Pre-Chorus) And it leaned in slow With a smile too wide Said, "You know I came For that thing you desperately hide" My chest collapsed The air in the room went thin I could feel my racing pulse An uneasy feeling was setting in (Chorus) The demon’s delight It came in during the night It knows where I will break It knows everything I hide The demon’s delight It laughs hysterically at my fright I woke up in a cold sweat shaking The images are trapped in my eyes The demon’s delight (Verse 4) Then I blinked and the furniture was gone Just a bare oak floor, slick and cold I was being circled by a violent storm Like it had my uncertain future sold I found my voice and with a ragged shout I emphatically say, "You don’t get to stay" The mirror shattered, the shadow frayed As it fell to the ground and finally went away (Pre-Chorus) And it leaned in slow With a smile too wide Said, "You know I came For that thing you desperately hide" My chest collapsed The air in the room went thin I could feel my racing pulse An uneasy feeling was setting in (Extended Musical Solos) (Chorus) The demon’s delight It came in during the night It knows where I will break It knows everything I hide The demon’s delight It laughs hysterically at my fright I woke up in a cold sweat shaking The images are trapped in my eyes The demon’s delight (Instrumental Outro)
