"Demon" lyrics

Every day's like something died
Every night is a battle inside
Try letting it go, god damn I tried
Really thought that I found love
Bury me down in the sands of time
Cover it up 'til it leaves my mind
Take me to the water, get me baptized
I don't know where to find love

I tried to run
But I know I'll never get away
I tried to hide
But it follows me around
Like a demon
Like a demon
Like a demon
It follows me around
Like a demon
Like a demon
Like a demon
My love for you will never go away

I was a fool, I gave you my heart
I succumb to your magic art
Made a deal with the devil inside
I didn't know where to find love
You tore me up, ripped me apart
Left me abandoned in the dark
Writing letters on the oujia board
Was not a way to invite love

I tried to run
But I know I'll never get away
I tried to hide
But it follows me around
Like a demon
Like a demon
Like a demon
It follows me around
Like a demon
Like a demon
Like a demon
My love for you will never go away

How will I ever be free again?
How will I ever escape you?
Oh, will I ever know love again?
People-led obsession
Come in, possession
I need a savior
Someone to come and rescue me
And chase this demon away

Ooh

(Ah) I tried to run
But I know I'll never get away
I tried to hide
But it follows me around
Like a demon
Like a demon
Like a demon
It follows me around
Like a demon
Like a demon
Like a demon
My love for you will never go away

I tried to run
But I know I'll never get away
I tried to hide
But it follows me around
Like a demon
Like a demon
Like a demon
It follows me around
Like a demon
Like a demon
Like a demon
My love for you will never go away
