( ominous chant, slow brooding guitar , and deep floor tom drums):
Their claws stretch across the floor
Hear them scratching at the door
They don’t have faces
They don’t have names
But they’re always here just the same
I try to run
I try to hide
But there is nowhere to flee from the one’s inside
(Pre chorus: heavy,slow chugging guitar):
And the lights go out
The fog rolls in
Where the edges blur
And the night begins
(Chorus : dark demented vocals ):
So I’m
Rounding up my demons tonight
Out where the dark overtakes the light
Desperate to make them see
Now i’m rounding up my demons tonight
To convince them
To believe in me
(Verse):
I can’t outrun them
I can’t pretend
Ready to follow them to the bitter end
They tell their secrets
Pouring poison in my ear
To overload reason
with doubt and fear
(Pre chorus):
And the lights go out
The fog rolls in
Where the edges blur
And the night begins
(Chorus ):
So I’m
Rounding up my demons tonight
Out where the dark overtakes the light
Desperate to make them see
Now I’m rounding up my demons tonight
To convince them
To believe in me
(Bridge ):
The way is winding
The path is steep
But those are the promises I vowed to keep
I take their hands
And they lead the way
Out on the fringe
To
CARRY ME AWAY !
(Fast bizarre guitar solo, crazy drum beats,
Breakdown, 808 bass drop
(Pre chorus):
And the lights go out
The fog rolls in
Where the edges blur
And the night begins
( chorus ):
So I’m
Rounding up my demons tonight
Out where the dark overtakes the light
Desperate to make them see
Now I’m rounding up my demons tonight To convince them
To believe in me
Ignore the pleading
Ignore the screams
It’s all just part
Of my fever dream
We will all gather around
The fire
In the dead of night
Rounding up my demons tonight
