I know of a demon
Who lives not in the ground
He lives in my head
When there's sadness around
He laughs when I fail
And giggles when I'm sad
He doesn't like when I'm happy,
And gets awful mad
How I wish this demon
Would find a new home,
Haunt someone else
And please leave me alone,
But the demon is comfortable
In my world of despair,
He's made me his home,
He's not going anywhere
So he'll plant his bad thoughts
Inside of my head,
Make me feel worthless,
And better off dead
He'll wreck havoc
And run amuk
Until the day comes
When I finally give up
And then the demon
Will pack his bags and leave
He'll go with a cackle,
And more tricks up his sleeve
He'll befriend another
And they'll let him in
He'll convince them he's good
They know not of his sins
I know of a demon
Who lives not in the ground,
Don't let him in,
He's searching around
And if he happens to knock on your door,
Flash him a smile,
Tell him he's not wanted anymore
And if you happen
To live demon free
Lend someone a hand,
Help someone like me
Some kind words
Really do go a long way
In making the demon
Go far away
I know of a demon
Who lives not in the ground
Slowly he's leaving
There's hope to be found
Who lives not in the ground
He lives in my head
When there's sadness around
He laughs when I fail
And giggles when I'm sad
He doesn't like when I'm happy,
And gets awful mad
How I wish this demon
Would find a new home,
Haunt someone else
And please leave me alone,
But the demon is comfortable
In my world of despair,
He's made me his home,
He's not going anywhere
So he'll plant his bad thoughts
Inside of my head,
Make me feel worthless,
And better off dead
He'll wreck havoc
And run amuk
Until the day comes
When I finally give up
And then the demon
Will pack his bags and leave
He'll go with a cackle,
And more tricks up his sleeve
He'll befriend another
And they'll let him in
He'll convince them he's good
They know not of his sins
I know of a demon
Who lives not in the ground,
Don't let him in,
He's searching around
And if he happens to knock on your door,
Flash him a smile,
Tell him he's not wanted anymore
And if you happen
To live demon free
Lend someone a hand,
Help someone like me
Some kind words
Really do go a long way
In making the demon
Go far away
I know of a demon
Who lives not in the ground
Slowly he's leaving
There's hope to be found
