Hard Skin

I don't expect you to understand
I expect you to take a stand, against me
Is it too much to hope that we could do better than cope
Crack open another demon to keep the demons at bay

You're a hard skin wrapped round a hard centre
Nothing gets through to you no matter what I say
You're a hard skin wrapped round a hard centre
You used to wrap around me; I wasn't
Hard enough to stay

It can't be easy being you
Playing the game on your own with me as the toy
Pull the strings I dance and sing I try to
Make it look like joy
Pull the cork on another demon and keep them at bay

That Beastie on your shoulder
Is smiling at you through a sneer
Whispers at night, shadows that fight
And leave you shaking with anger or fear

Good luck and good bye and
Adios 'til the next time
I'm busy, you see, trying to find me
Your demons are driving me crazy
So pull the cork, or crack the can, this next demons on me
