LAY DOWN WITH DEMONS


WORDS & MUSIC: HANK “HOLY ROLLER” RAY
GOLDFINGER PUBLISHING, 1999


The end of day is nigh and wild things call
I close my tired eyes but find no rest at all
The shades are down the lights are dim
I got a lot of time to think
While choirs of angels sing

 

I lay down with demons
Lay down with demons

 

Like a muddy stream the hours drift by
Leaving me with nothing but a troubled mind
I smell your skin your mild perfume
In every corner of the room
Temptation is real when I

 

Lay down with demons
Lay down with demons

 

Soon the day will come I’ll make you mine at last
Call the lonely nights part of the past
Till then wild-eyed creatures murmur low
Curses, jinxes to my soul
I’m slowly burning when

 

I lay down with demons
Lay down with demons
Lay down with demons
Lay down with demons
Lay down with demons
Lay down with demons
