They Rise - MandoPony

I can't shake the demons

And I can't sleep at night

I can't stop the screaming

And I can't win this fight

It was supposed to end after

Five nights of hell

Scars too deep will make you change

I'm just surviving in my shell

'Cause there is no going back

To the man I used to be

I will never be safe

And I will never be free

No there is no going back

To a time before the fear

No matter where I go I know

The ghosts are all too near

Why won't they let me go

Why can't I just move on

I gave my heart and soul

Now everything is gone

In darkness I still see

The light of their eyes

They haunt me like a ghost

And in the night they rise

These shadows in my mind

Are creeping deep into my soul

I can't shake the past

It lingers on and demands control

Trembling trapped in memories

They flash before my waking eyes

It was just supposed to be a job

But it left me paralyzed

'Cause there is no going back

To the man I used to be

I will never be safe

And I will never be free

'Cause there is no going back

To a time before the fear

No matter where I go I know

The ghosts are all too near

Why won't they let me go

Why can't I just move on

I gave my heart and soul

Now everything is gone

In darkness I still see

The light of their eyes

They haunt me like a ghost

And in the night they rise

I can't leave them behind

I can't shut the door

I'm not who I was

Anymore

In darkness I still see

The light of their eyes

They haunt me like a ghost

And in the night

They rise
