Demon
There's a demon in my kitchen.
Eating our food,
Sharing our beds,
There's a demon in my kitchen.
Although only a few can tell,
Which is quite hard for me to believe,
For I know this demon well.
There's a Demon in my kitchen.
And I am no longer afraid,
If I ever was,
It's hard to tell these days.
There's a demon in my kitchen.
Though "demon" is not his name,
For you it might be "friend" or "brother,"
For me it's still "insane".
There's a demon in my kitchen.
And I know you think me cruel,
But it's not so fun when you meet the cops,
On your way home from school.
There's a Demon in my kitchen.
Yet I still say "hello" with a sigh,
But like him it's all a facade,
Because I've seen my father cry.
There's a demon in my kitchen.
And though love him I must,
It won't stop the demon,
From craving bloodlust.
