Help! My Demons Say They Love Me

I'm pretty sure the devil
Thinks he's God
Cause every demon that I've met
Seemed so convinced
They were sent from up above

But they say love
When they mean fear
It's the only way
They know to make you adhere
They say you're free
As they lock your cage
They're afraid
That if they don't
You'd do the same
While they sing love
Oh they preach love
Oh they say love

I wrestle with these demons
Every day
They insist it's love
When every move they make
Is to take our lives away

Oh they say love
When they mean fear
It's the only way
They know to make you adhere
They say you're free
As they lock your cage
They're afraid
That if they don't
You'd do the same
While they sing love
Oh they preach love
Oh they say love

Consumed by self-righteous power
Claiming God's name
To force the darkest of hours
I hear the calf laugh
In the distance
The camel cries
The needle broke
But no one can break
The cognitive dissonance

Oh they say love
When they mean fear
It's the only way
They know to make you adhere
They say you're free
While they lock your cage
And they're afraid
That if they don't
You'd do the same
While they sing love
Oh they preach love
Oh they say love
