Demure Rage



You woke up a beast in me

That I thought I killed off before

And now that it’s enraged, wide awake

You don’t know if you should go or stay

To run far away or shelter in place 


I’m willing to let anyone get away with murder

Until you some how find a way to take it too far

And now it’s crazy how my passiveness 

Is replaced by anger worse than torment eternal 


Ya really should run

Faster than sound

Far from the range 

Of my demure rage

Ya really should go

And not be found 

Far from the range 

Of my demure rage. 


I don’t know what i could do

With all this chaos erupting

No one’s safe and no one understands 

When this destructive side came to be

But in my eyes they see it’s frightening 


I’ve turned my cheek so many times now all I know is numb. 

But somewhere deep in my forgiving nature is a 

Piece of me that wants no apologies 

Only revenge that’s nothing but irrational


Ya really should run

Faster than sound

Far from the range 

Of my demure rage

Ya really should go

And not be found 

Far from the range 

Of my demure rage.
