Beast of the Night

A tempest inside that's been too long drawn Each whisper of weakness, I push away Can't let the venom inside me stay Tearing through the night (through the night) Breaking free, refusing to be the prey I'll confront this beast that led me astray [Chorus] I've watched the demons, they've come to play Felt the grip as my will sways From the shadows to the light Battle scars of the inner fight They crave a peace that's so unreal It's a wound that I can't heal [Verse 2] Lost in echoes, the whispers scream Temptation's voice, a recurring dream Each step forwards, they drag me back In the mirror, the eyes that crack With every choice, I feel the strain It's a war with the ghost in my veins Flickering hope (fading hope) The dying light I try to hold Crashing walls, no self-control Grasping sanity, a thinning thread In this mental storm, I find my dread [Pre-Chorus] Screaming loud, my silence breaks But the fight's not over, won't concede the fray With each breath, I'm clawing through the disarray In the ashes, I'll rise, not just survive Through the pain, find strength, keep the fight alive [Chorus] The demons come, they circle 'round But I'll stand tall on this battleground
