I took a look around me today,
And what I saw, it blew me away.
The things we hear,
The things we see,
Makes me wonder how it came to be.
Chase away those demons in the dark
Don’t give in, they’ll do you harm.
Remember now, I’m here for you.
Take my hand…
I walked into a room
And found myself in chaos
So many hurtful words were said.
People leaving left and right,
Can they make it through the night?
A sarcastic voice,
Not meant to do any harm…
Why can’t you see you’re hurting them?
Take back those words, say them again…
Chase away those demons in the dark
Don’t give in, they’ll do you harm.
Remember now, I’m here for you.
Take my hand…
A friend walked home one day
And found a horror on display
A friend, another suicide.
Why can’t we decide?
This life is meant for living
This life is meant for giving
Don’t throw it all away.
Wait to see the light of day,
You’ll see more clearly, more clearly…
Wait for me to come to you…
Chase away those demons in the dark
Don’t give in, they’ll do you harm.
Remember now, I’m here for you.
Take my hand…
I hear those dirty jokes you tell
And where you’ll end up I can’t tell.
These things you do
Make me feel sick.
I worry for you, I worry for you.
Degrading others, putting them down
Are you supposed to be my hero?
Why do you make them feel like a zero?
Can’t you see it’s tearing them apart…
Chase away those demons in the dark
Don’t give in, they’ll do you harm.
Remember now, I’m here for you.
Take my hand…
And I’m lost… in my darkest despair.
Never knowing when you’ll be there.
I’m all-alone now with my thoughts…
Who ever knew it wouldn’t be enough?
My demons chase me in the dark…
Chase away those demons in the dark
Don’t give in, they’ll do you harm.
Remember now, I’m here for you.
Take my hand…
Give me your hand,
I’ll lead you to the light.
Together we’ll wait till dawn.
There is hope in the darkness
When we’re together…
Chase away those demons in the dark
Don’t give in, they’ll do you harm.
Remember now, I’m here for you.
Take my hand…
I’m here for you…
Cool poem. Maybe "Why do you make them feel like a zero?" could be "Why do you pull them down to zero" or "why do you make them less than zero".
I think this would make a good song.
