And The Demons Followed Her
She can feel them following her tonight
They know not she knows they're there
But she accepted that which is reality early on
So if they wish to subdue her, she's well prepared.
She no longer feels the sun's warmth on her face
She no longer shivers in the coolness of the dark night
She accepts that there's no more deep connection here
She's embracing the darkness, she can't find the light.
Right now she would be okay with an overabundance of caring
She'd trade being smothered with hugs and kisses just to be sure
But they are on different worldly levels than they were the first time
Now, she feels more like he'd rather her just go out the door.
She can surely say that she's no stranger to these moments
They've over time become nightmares haunting her mind
They may never stop now, she's already lived over half her life
She just wish she could do a magic spell, turn the hands of time.
She can sense that the wind blows a different direction now
And that the one she's always loved is no longer feeling the same
It's becoming a hard thing to make her heart forget
When there was a time his only called out her name.
The love between them became the topic of a crime
A crime once full of twists, turns, and unbridled passion
That was before she knew he could be so hateful like here and now
She would have never in years seen it coming, its not his fashion.
But it seems he has called her unto him and his kingdom
Just to make her accept the bitterness he leaves upon her tongue
She was willing to do most anything to please his desired will
But it seems he doesn't want this, it's all just for fun.
She feels their presence close to her as she walks the streets tonight
She's willing to accept whatever's next, for, she's over this torture
But she swore to remain and take care of him the rest of life
He's too unpredictable, like the waves stealing the shore.
And the demons, well they followed her everywhere tonight
She hoped she'd lose them but they caught her every turn
She tried to run but it proved to be fruitless as well
So to love him she has to sit back and let her heart burn.
