Demon Blues

Lyrics

[Intro] Too many years left to rot in the hive When all shadows fall watch the night come alive [Verse 1] I am the voices in the medicine, I am the starless, soulless sky And if I ever climb the mountain, baby, I'll reclaim the endless night I'm a vampire with a loaded shotgun, my veins are full of speed And the blood that I crave takes me back to the grave, gives me everything I need [Chorus] A fire burns at the heart of the darkness The smell of ashes when the sun goes down A hidden path to a temple of nightmares It wears a crown made of leather and bone A spiral God at the heart of the darkness It comes alive when there's nothing to lose A wicked flame sparks the dreams of a madman I come alive with the Demon Blues [Verse 2] I am the voices in your head, I am the ticking in your brain I'm all the twisted dreams you have of endless misery and pain I'm the high priest of the wicked, baby, I'm a master of disguise And when you try to scream, you'll know that it's me because I have your father's eyes [Chorus] A fire burns at the heart of the darkness The smell of ashes when the sun goes down A hidden path to a temple of nightmares It wears a crown made of leather and bone A spiral God at the heart of the darkness It comes alive when there's nothing to lose A wicked flame sparks the dreams of a madman I come alive with the Demon Blues [Post-Chorus] I come alive, I come alive [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] A fire burns at the heart of the darkness The smell of ashes when the sun goes down A hidden path to a temple of nightmares It wears a crown made of leather and bone A spiral God at the heart of the darkness It comes alive when there's nothing to lose A wicked flame sparks the dreams of a madman I come alive with the Demon Blues
