Theocracy - Laying The Demon To Rest Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • As I sit alone and tired, with time to spare
  • Temptation rears its ugly head
  • Born from a deceptive dream into a nightmare
  • It calls to me again
  • Testing me to see if I will break this time
  • Or at least how far I'll bend
  • I can see its glowing eyes and hear its evil cries
  • "Come dance with me, my friend..."
  • So, the things that I want to do
  • I find myself not doing
  • but the things that I don't want to do
  • I fall into - Why?
  • Why do we struggle with the former things and
  • live in our own power below our means?
  • War
  • Don't you understand this is war?
  • War with the principalities and powers
  • Things unseen that would devour us all
  • The spirit battles the flesh
  • And now my wounds are deep
  • and torn wide open
  • I'm tired and weary, hurt and broken down
  • Lead us not
  • Into temptation
  • But deliver us
  • From the evil one
  • Darkness falls
  • On my spirit again
  • Again temptation calls
  • I can hear it
  • As the battle rages on and on
  • I face the things that put my faith to the test
  • When fallen angels won't leave me alone
  • Father, come and lay the demon to rest
  • When my sword has broken off in my hand
  • I see the dark futility of the flesh
  • When I'm about to fall, please help me stand
  • Father, come and lay the demon to rest
  • Instrumental Break
  • They're on my back
  • I run, but I can feel their talons
  • digging in my flesh
  • Blood trickles down upon the earth
  • And I grow weaker with each breath
  • Each time I shake one off
  • another wraps its teeth around my neck
  • And every time, the one, the thorn is there
  • To tear me down again
  • The angels counterstrike
  • Their flaming swords slice through
  • the fallen ones
  • The demons reunite, attack again
  • The cycle has begun
  • Caught in the middle of this present darkness
  • with nowhere to run
  • We're in a holy war
  • As it is written, so shall it be done
  • Where there's a will, there's a way, they say
  • But sometimes my will seems to get in the way
  • So You will have to fight for me today
  • Repeat Chorus
