These New Demons

(Album: Rise - 2015)

I used to look into the mirror and see my own reflection
Now all I see is what I fear, I'm missing your perception
It's growing deep inside of me like an acute infection
To where the only remedy is constant self deception

Be gone, haunt me nevermore
I'm exorcising these new demons
For love, was it worth it all?
When it all, now it all, it all, it all means nothing

How could I let you get inside like something parasitic?
All that I wanted was a bride, I got a judge and critic
The voice still lingers, I deny the psychoanalytic diatribes

Be gone, haunt me nevermore
I'm exorcising these new demons
For love, was it worth it all?
When it all, now it all, it all, it all means nothing

This is the end
Cede defeat once again

It's breaking me down, breaking me down
It's breaking me down, breaking me down
It's breaking me down, breaking me down
It's breaking me down, breaking me down

Be gone, haunt me nevermore
I'm exorcising these new demons
For love, was it worth it all?
When it all, now it all, it all, it all means nothing

It all, it all, it all means nothing
It all, it all, it all means nothing
