A collaboration between M L Dunn (The Cast, U Kay Hytz etc) and lyricist Justine Perry Dear Beloved Demon She walked me home from school With dirt beneath her claws She wanted to be cruel x2 We shared our deepest thoughts she nurtured all my fears And helped me to withdraw, she helped me to withdraw She stayed throughout the years she's here and she's not leaving She dries up all my tears my dear beloved demon Chorus I've cut my leash but I will not run 'cause she protected me from love She taught me, told me not to trust she's beautifully corrupt She laughs when my friends cry because they've been betrayed She tells me love's a lie x2 She keeps me in the shade I'm grateful but it's cold Behind her barricade, behind this barricade Together we'll grow old I'm here and I'm not leaving Please everyone behold My Dear Beloved Demon Chorus I've cut my leash but I will not run 'Cause she protected me from love She taught me, told me not to trust she's beautifully corrupt She watches over me at night I'll be all right, won't I? Don't tell me she's from hell she guards me like an angel And I will never fall she's vigilant not brutal Chorus I've cut my leash but will not run 'Cause she protected me from love She taught me, told me not to trust she's beautifully corrupt She walked me home from school with dirt beneath her claws She wanted to be cruel x2 But she's the vaccination jabbed into my vein I'm overcome with pain But in the end she keeps me safe Chorus I've cut my leash but I will not run 'Cause she protected me from love She taught me, told me not to trust she's beautifully corrupt She's beautifully corrupt She's beautifully corrupt
