I Dream of Demons

When I go to sleep each night I try and try
But I can't fight the evil visions that are dancing in my head
Are they hiding in the closet?
Are they underneath the bed?

There's no telling what you'll find when you slip into the dark recesses of your mind
If you want a demon to do your dirty deeds
Here's a simple recipe that you'll need
Put laurel leaves underneath your pillow and bat blood on your eyelids to bring a demon to you
But remember this, of all the things I say
Once they're in your house they never go away!

Every night I dream of demons 'cause they hiding in the dark where no one else can see them
I dream, I dream of demons 'cause they talk to me at night when no one else can hear them
Every night I dream of demons, I can see them in the shadows but nobody believes me
I dream, I dream of demons…in the middle of the night I wake up screaming!

Don't drink water from the well on Wednesday
Don't tempt fate no matter what your friends say
'Cause demons are real like you and me and if you let them they'll infect you and everything they see

Sleep never was a friend of mine cuz it's full of dead cats and porcupines
Each night I tell myself it's only a nightmare but I wake up and their eyes are everywhere

Every night I dream of demons cuz they hiding in the dark where no one else can see them
I dream, I dream of demons cuz they talk to me at night when no one else can hear them
Every night I dream of demons
I can see them in the shadows but nobody believes me
I dream, I dream of demons
I can hear them in the closet and they're plotting and they're scheming
