Better Demons Lyrics by Good Charlotte

GENERATION Rx

2018

[Intro]
Children so traumatized in the first years of life that they do not bond with other people
They are children who cannot love or accept love
Who could hurt or even kill without remorse
Could a great deal of this be demons?
[Verse 1]
We both know that there's a season
A time and place to believe in
The strange is gonna come, and we both need it
To give this up right now
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And there's no easy way to say that we've both changed
The life we knew, well, it won't ever be the same
[Chorus]
I'm just holding on to my better demons
And I really need them not to fail me now
I speak in tongues, but I can never free them
And my spirit weakens, but I won't back down
[Verse 2]
No holy ghost, no holy spirit
I'm on my own right now
Do the angels sing if you can't hear them?
'Cause I don't hear a sound
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Yeah, there's no easy way to tell you that I'm gone
[Chorus]
I'm just holding on to my better demons
And I really need them not to fail me now
I speak in tongues, but I can never free them
And my spirit weakens, but I won't back down
[Bridge]
Lead me while I wait for clouds to break
On my own, I'll face down all my enemies
[Chorus]
I'm just holding on to my better demons
And I really need them not to fail me now
I speak in tongues, but I can never free them
And my spirit weakens, but I won't back down
[Outro]
In your nightmare what happens?
I get really scared
Where are you in the nightmare? What happens in the dream?
I'm in my house upstairs
And then what happens next?
And then he comes upstairs and, um, hurts
