No! Helpless, my eyes are bleeding from the fear that's inside, You sealed your demise when you took what was mine Don't try and stop me from avenging this world, No voice to be heard Waking the Demon, Where'd ya run to Walking in shadows, Watch the blood flow There's not much longer so don't try and fight, Your body's weakening so walk to the light All those painful times so alone so ashamed, I'm not coming back there's nothing to gain Caution, there's just no limits to the boundaries you push, I've warned you but still you just f*ck with my mind There's no escape from this rage that I feel, Nothing is real Waking the Demon, Where'd ya run to Walking in shadows, Watch the blood flow There's not much longer so don't try and fight, Your body's weakening so walk to the light All those painful times so alone so ashamed, I'm not coming back there's nothing to gain Breath for me, Don't wake me from this slumber Stay with me, Possession taking over Possession taking over Breath for me, Don't wake me from this slumber Stay with me, Possession taking over Possession taking over Waking the Demon
