The other voice is talking
Up inside my head
It remembers nothing
From the books I've read
It tells me that I'm worthless
It tells me love is cheap
It sounds like parents fighting
When I'm trying to sleep

I had the dream again last night
The demon in his car
He had horse hair fingers
And peppercorn eyes
And he beckoned me again
To go for another ride 
I was standing by the mailbox
A package was inside
It was a thousand blank pages
It has been ages 
Since I've said the word no
And told that demon to go

The Demon drove off slowly
I'm still standing here
Like an owner's manual
For some new kind of fear
I must be getting better
I just can't see it yet
Like blood that's getting redder
Like an ocean getting wet

I had the dream again last night
The demon in his car
He had horse hair fingers
And peppercorn eyes
And he beckoned me to come
Go for another ride 
I was standing by the mailbox
A package was inside
It was a thousand blank pages
It has been ages 
Since I've said the word no
And took care of my soul
I may be on the road
But I've still got a long way to go
