A Demon Seemingly Stabled

By Virgils Vigil



There’s music on the right

 

There’s music to your left

 

No matter where you stop to rest

 

There’s a demon in your chest

 

 

He’ll suck up all your soul

 

Leaving nothing but a hole

 

He’ll work his way through the top

 

That creature sets up shop

 


There’s a demon in my brain

 

And he’s driving me insane

 

No matter how hard you seem to play

 

That demon’s here to stay

 

 

 

There’s music on your left

 

There’s music to the right

 

No matter how hard you try to fight

 

The demon takes a healthy bite

 

 

Of the songs you seem to sow

 

For this demon I’ll always owe

 

Oh, I know ‘till the day that I might drop

 

That demon can’t be stopped

 

 

There’s a demon in my brain

 

And he’s driven me insane

 

No matter how hard you try to play

 

The demon is here to stay
