Brian Hartt - Put Your Demons to Rest Lyrics

She said, "Put your demons to rest, there's enough tucked tight my bed"
I always wondered why, she couldn't sleep a night, and certainly i tried
But the skeletons i keep, come on sneaking up to me
And i never could say no, to the things they offered me
It's a path or a problem
I try to avoid
And my hand won't stop shaking
Cause you can't make a choice
Cause Lord knows that nothing stays in the dark
I said, "I have devils that scare me each day, since you told me I couldn't be afraid"
They hide beneath my hollow eyes, around each corner of my life, and i'm barely getting by
I have heavy debts to pay, inside the bedroom where i lay
Now i start to see, i sell my soul most every day
It's a path or a problem
I try to avoid
And my hand won't stop shaking
Cause you can't make a choice
Cause Lord knows that nothing stays in the dark
The closet door is always closed, so i can't hear the chains
I put my ghosts to rest on the day i said her name
