Lyrics
They say I'm a moody child
Quiet & withdrawn
They say I shy away from people
And don't mix with the other eight year olds
But I've got a secret
That they wouldn't understand
And I don't think they'd believe me
They'd just say I was afraid of the dark
So I hold on to the sunlight as long as I can
And I can see the castles and the angels behind the playground walls
And I don't care if they think I'm strange
I must have magic powers
If I see things they cannot see
There's a demon in my bedroom
He only comes out at night
I say goodnight to my mother
And I know he will be waiting
The light goes out, and he touches me
I feel like I've curled up & died inside
I'm afraid to tell my mother
'cos he'll take my family away
So I hold on to the sunlight as long as I can
And I can see the castles and the angels behind the playground walls
And I don't care if they think I'm strange
I must have magic powers
If I see things they cannot see
One day I killed him
I stabbed him through the heart
I remember watching him dying
Or was I only dreaming?
Sometimes, if someone touches me
I feel like I've curled up & died inside
I'm still afraid of the darkness
And the demon is in my dreams
So I hold on to the sunlight as long as I can
And I can see the castles and the angels behind the playground walls
And I don't care if you think I'm strange
I must have magic powers
If I see things you cannot see
Quiet & withdrawn
They say I shy away from people
And don't mix with the other eight year olds
But I've got a secret
That they wouldn't understand
And I don't think they'd believe me
They'd just say I was afraid of the dark
So I hold on to the sunlight as long as I can
And I can see the castles and the angels behind the playground walls
And I don't care if they think I'm strange
I must have magic powers
If I see things they cannot see
There's a demon in my bedroom
He only comes out at night
I say goodnight to my mother
And I know he will be waiting
The light goes out, and he touches me
I feel like I've curled up & died inside
I'm afraid to tell my mother
'cos he'll take my family away
So I hold on to the sunlight as long as I can
And I can see the castles and the angels behind the playground walls
And I don't care if they think I'm strange
I must have magic powers
If I see things they cannot see
One day I killed him
I stabbed him through the heart
I remember watching him dying
Or was I only dreaming?
Sometimes, if someone touches me
I feel like I've curled up & died inside
I'm still afraid of the darkness
And the demon is in my dreams
So I hold on to the sunlight as long as I can
And I can see the castles and the angels behind the playground walls
And I don't care if you think I'm strange
I must have magic powers
If I see things you cannot see
