I don’t mean to give you a fright
But did you hear that tonight
The moon will be hidden from view
And you will feel them coming for you
You may think it is no big deal
In fact you might even say they are not real
But they are and deep inside
You know there is no place to hide
Right there hidden in the dark
You will find your true heart
You will walk by that computer aglow
Temptation to look at porn will be your foe
But you will find the strength to walk on by
Knowing there is no pleasure, it’s all a lie
Then on your phone you click on Facebook
Find an old friend, just for one look
After all, what could it hurt
But then you start to flirt
But you say you can’t do this
Your marriage is at risk
So you take a drive right by that old bar
You slow down and park your car
What could it hurt, just one beer
But you’ve been sober two years
And you know alcohol is just a thief
You know you have to get in your car and leave
But then from the alley some people catch your eye
You see the homeless and decide to change a life
You talk to them like the people they are
Listen to their stories, for we all have scars
Buy them something to eat and go back home tonight
Yes, the demons are close, they might even be in sight
You might say they aren’t real but we both know
That’s not the truth because I’ve been to that bottom so low
I’ve got those demons and they can be hidden from view
You see, I am really no different than you
But like the moon when the clouds part
There’s a light that shines in the dark
That’s where I go when the demons come
I don’t believe the lies that I’m worthless, scum
I’ve made mistakes but I know I’m forgiven
My sins paid for by the one who has risen
The liar has been defeated, victory won
The blood shed for me by God’s begotten son
