[Verse 1] I keep the chain by the bed I hear them moving in my head Scratched name on the door Like they’ve been here before Cold hands on my spine They want the first word, want the whole line I bite down hard and grin But they know where I’ve been [Pre-Chorus] If I let one out They all rush the hall If I crack that seal I might lose it all [Chorus] Release my demons Let them out tonight Release my demons Make the dark come alive I’ve held them too long Now they want their turn Release my demons Watch the fire burn [Verse 2] I’ve worn this face so clean While the wreckage hid between Every lie I fed the mirror Made the shadow grow clearer There’s a howl in the wire There’s a match in the wire I can feel that old storm Learning my shape again [Pre-Chorus] If I let one out They all rush the hall If I crack that seal I might lose it all [Chorus] Release my demons Let them out tonight Release my demons Make the dark come alive I’ve held them too long Now they want their turn Release my demons Watch the fire burn [Bridge] I’m done acting holy Done cutting my throat If the truth looks ugly Let it wear my coat Take the mask off Let the bruises show I’m not here to beg now I’m here to know [Final Chorus] Release my demons Let them out tonight Release my demons Make the dark come alive I’ve held them too long Now they want their turn Release my demons Watch the fire burn Release my demons (Release my demons) Release my demons (Watch it burn)
