My Demon (God Help Me)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been running from something That I could not see I was running from something That was inside of me I've been running from something That was hiding, waiting to be free [Verse 2] I've been trying not to lose my grip Trying to keep control I've been trying to win the battle With my back against the wall I been trying not to let it slip away I can't hold it anymore [Pre-Chorus] And my demon he was patient Just wait 'till I have nowhere else to turn And he knew my situation He was laughing as I burned [Chorus] And I cried out god help me I got no one on my side I'd get down on my knees If you make it alright And I cried out god help me I'm running out of time I'd fall down on my knees If you make it alright [Verse 3] I learned to keep my friends at arms length And my enemies real tight And I learned that when the night is cold The flame's still burning bright And I learned that when it hurt me Was the only time that I could feel alive [Verse 4] So I started feeling no pain Even when they broke my back And I headed down that empty road And never looking back And I started to draw a single breathe before Before I would attack [Pre-Chorus 2] I saw my demon in the mirror Looking back at me Right there in my eyes And I couldn't walk away from him No matter how hard I tried [Chorus] And I cried out god help me I got no one on my side I'd get down on my knees If you make it alright And I cried out god help me I'm running out of time I'd fall down on my knees If you make it alright [Refrain] I've been trying not to lose my grip Trying to keep control I've been trying not to let it slip away But I can't take it anymore [Chorus] So I cried out god help me I got no one on my side I'd get down on my knees If you make it alright So I cried out god help me I'm running out of time I'd fall down on my knees If you make it alright [Post-Chorus] I cried out god help me I cried out god help me And I cried out god help me I got no one on my side [Outro] I'm running out of time I'm running out of time No one on my side now God help me God help me Oh god help me now And I cried out god help me God help me now God help me I've got no one on my side
