Case Studies - Dagger lyrics

Last night i tried to find my demon; he was gone My hands stretched out to hold him and he slipped right through my fingers Never in my life have i felt so alone As when my sword and shield were taken Then you took my stinger I can't change a thing I don't want to I don't want to I woke up this morning; my old face was gone With sunken eyes, this worn out skin Cracked like desert mud I've tried to turn my heart into a block of stone It only cried out louder, don't you bury me Don't leave me behind All my masks are gone All my weapons I don't need them now I've been lonely for so long Wasn't looking for nothing, then you came along All of my escorts through the dark Have been my demons And i can't find them no more On a texas porch, i'll write another song In hopes it brings me closer to you Every time i sing it I'm tired of hiding, tired of trying to be strong I'd ask you to be stronger But i don't blame you now You've been lonely for too long You went looking for nothing, then i came along You came and you loved me at my worst And if you have to move on I beg you, take me with you when you go When you go When you go When you go
