Demon In The Dark

Chorus: I cry for the lost broken children

I weep for the last dying spark

And if only you could weep for the children

You would not call me demon in the dark

The cavern of the ages has been broken, has been battered

And the unborn children cry in all my dreams

I cannot see tomorrow in the shattered shards of yesterday

My tears flood out in bleak despairing streams

You broke into the caverns as a pirate after plunder

And the unborn children died as I stood by

What kind of heartless monsters would kill children without even tears

And yet you call me demon as you die

I've tried with all my failing strength to stop you or to tell you

But I cannot reach your thoughts with word or cry

And as you train your weapons on my open back to fire again

I'm etching one last message; "NO KILL I"
