Demons

Imagine Dragons
When the days are cold
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see
Are all made of gold

When your dreams all fail


And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all
And the blood’s run stale

I want to hide the truth


I want to shelter you
But with the beast inside
There’s nowhere we can hide

No matter what we breed


We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat


Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide

At the curtain’s call


It’s the last of all
When the lights fade out
All the sinners crawl
So they dug your grave
And the masquerade
Will come calling out
At the mess you made

Don’t want to let you down


But I am hell bound
Though this is all for you
Don’t want to hide the truth
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide

They say it's what you make


I say it's up to fate
It's woven in my soul
I need to let you go
Your eyes, they shine so bright
I want to save that light
I can't escape this now
Unless you show me how

When you feel my heat


Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh
Oh

I’m waking up to ash and dust


I wipe my brow and sweat my rust
I’m breathing in the chemicals
I’m breaking in, shaping up
Then checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse

Oh, oh
I’m waking up
I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my system blow

Welcome to the new age


To the new age
Welcome to the new age
To the new age

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh


Oh, oh, oh, oh
I´m radioactive
I´m radioactive

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh


Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm radioactive
I´m radioactive

I raise my flag, and dye my clothes


It’s a revolution, I suppose
We’re painted red to fit right in
Oh, oh

I’m breaking in, shaping up


Then checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse
Oh, oh

I’m waking up
I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my system blow
Welcome to the new age
To the new age
Welcome to the new age
To the new age

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh


Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm radioactive
I´m radioactive

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh


Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm radioactive
I´m radioactive

All systems go
The sun hasn’t died
Deep in my bones
Straight from inside

I’m waking up
I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my system blow

Welcome to the new age


To the new age
Welcome to the new age
To the new age

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh


Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm radioactive
Radioactive

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh


Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm radioactive
Radioactive

Monster
Imagine Dragons
Ever since I could remember
Everything inside of me
Just wanted to fit in (oh oh oh oh)
I was never one for pretenders
Everything I tried to be
Just wouldn't settle in (oh oh oh oh)

If I told you what I was


Would you turn your back on me?
Even if I seem dangerous
Would you be scared?
I get the feeling just because
Everything I touch isn't dark enough
If this problem lies in me

I'm only a man with a candle to guide me


I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me
A monster, a monster
I've turned into a monster
A monster, a monster
And it keeps getting stronger

Can I clear my conscience


If I'm different from the rest
Do I have to run and hide? (oh oh oh oh)
I never said that I want this
This burden came to me
And it's made it's home inside (oh oh oh oh)

If I told you what I was


Would you turn your back on me?
Even if I seem dangerous
Would you be scared?
I get the feeling just because
Everything I touch isn't dark enough
If this problem lies in me

I'm only a man with a candle to guide me


I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me
A monster, a monster
I've turned into a monster
A monster, a monster
And it keeps getting stronger

I'm only a man with a candle to guide me


I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me
A monster, a monster
I'm turning to a monster
A monster, a monster
And it keeps getting stronger
