lyrics

Lost in a whirlwind of pain
I hear what you say
But I'm not OK
It's so easy to hide
Just one more time
Until I fall
Oblivion calls
Baby do you see that demon that's up on me
Baby can you ride the demon that's riding me

I've been saddled up
And rode into the ground
Set on a course to collide
But I'm no lily white
Stallion for a knight
I'll need your help to survive

Sharpen up your spurs
Sit square and tall
I feel the claws inside
Though my backs to the wall
I know I'll never be free but
Baby can you ride the demon that's riding me
Oh please can you ride the demon that's riding me

Banged up ridden hard
Saddles tight leaving scars
Cuts into me like a knife
I'm running fast out of time and
I need your hands to bind
This darkness from the blinders on my eyes

I know that it's not your cross to bear
And I see the disbelief in your stare
And maybe someday I'll find a new way
To buck off this demon let myself stray
But today is not that day so I pray

That you sharpen up your spurs
Sit square and tall
I feel the claws inside
Though my backs against the wall
And I know I'll never be free but
Baby can you ride the demon that's riding me
How I long to be free
Baby can you ride the demon that's riding me
Oh please can you ride the demon that's riding me

Just one more ride so hold on tight
Keep our lights warm
We'll out run the storm
Baby do you see that demon up on me
