In a world full of demons it's hard to find light,

It's hard to find hope when you lose all your sight

Words are twisted cruel and cold

No one to comfort no one to hold

With poisoned minds

And daggered glares

Hateful thoughts and scornful stares

They'll rip apart your heart and soul

Left to die in a darkened hole

But in amongst the creatures here

I found the one thing I don't fear

You soothed my heart with words you'd sing

An angel who had lost his wings

A shining light I'd never seen

You made life sparkle, made it gleam

And with kind words the darkness fades

And in the light, I see your face

Your gentle eyes and caring smile

Counteract all that is vile

And as you gently take my hand

You lift me to a better land

Where I no longer need to hide

Where demons no longer reside.
