[Verse 1]
You’re sleeping by the window
Moonlight on your wrist like a silver shield
I’m tracing every shadow
Naming every fear that you never feel
Breath held
While the room stays still
I’ve seen what the dark can kill
[Pre-Chorus]
Every wound I hide behind a smile (you don’t see)
Every scar I cover with a sleeve
If they want your heart
They come through me
They come through me
[Chorus]
I’ll fight these demons in the dark for you
Bleeding in the silence till the night is through
If I crawl
If I fall
I’ll still stand in front of you
Every monster calling out your name
I turn their fire into ash and flame
If I break
Let me break
I was made to burn for you
I’ll fight these demons in the dark for you (for you)
[Verse 2]
Hands shake on the doorknob
Hear them in the hallway whisper my name
I’m drawing little circles
On the floorboards
Building a fragile faith
Your voice
On the other side
Is the only reason I survive
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time the shadows pull me down (I can’t breathe)
Your heartbeat is dragging me awake
If they want your light
They’ll have to take
All I can take
[Chorus]
I’ll fight these demons in the dark for you
Bleeding in the silence till the night is through
If I crawl
If I fall
I’ll still stand in front of you
Every monster calling out your name
I turn their fire into ash and flame
If I break
Let me break
I was made to burn for you
I’ll fight these demons in the dark for you (for you)
[Bridge]
If I turn into what I hate
Would you still call out my name? (hey)
Hold my face and pull me back
From the edge I built myself
If the world forgets your grace
I’ll carve your love into this hell
I’ll carve your love into myself
[Chorus]
I’ll fight these demons in the dark for you
Bleeding in the silence till the night is through
If I crawl
If I fall
I’ll still stand in front of you
Every monster calling out your name
I turn their fire into ash and flame
If I break
Let me break
I was made to burn for you
‘Cause my heart
Is a sword
And it only swings for you
I’ll fight these demons in the dark for you (oh yeah)
I’ll fight these demons in the dark for you
