When the days are cold, and the cards all fold, and the saints we see are all made of gold, when your dreams all fail, and the ones we hail are the worst of all, and the blood’s run stale,
I wan na hide the truth; I wan na shel ter you.
But with the beast in side, there’s no where we can hide.
No mat ter what we breed, we still are made of greed.
This is my king dom come.
This is my king dom come.
When you feel my heat, look in to my eyes; it’s where my de mons hide, it’s where my de mons hide.
Don’t get too close; it’s dark in side.
It’s where my de mons hide, it’s where my de At mons hide.
tain’s call, it’s the last of all.
When the lights fade out, all the sin ners crawl.
So they dug your grave, and the mas quer ade will come call ing out at the mess you’ve made.
Don’t wan na let you down, but I am hell ter bound.
Though this is all for you, don’t want to hide the truth.
No mat ter what we breed, we still are made of greed.
This is my king dom come.
This is my king dom come.
When you feel my heat, look in to my eyes; it’s where my de mons hide, it’s where my de mons hide.
Don’t get too close; it’s dark in side.
It’s where my de mons hide, it’s where my de At mons cur tain’s call, it’s the last it’s where my de mons hide.
They say it’s what you make; I say it’s up to fate.
It’s wo ven in my soul; I need to let you go.
Your eyes, they shine so bright; I wan na save that light.
I can’t es cape this now, un less you show me how.
When you feel my heat, look in to my eyes; it’s where my de mons hide, it’s where my de mons hide.
Don’t get too close; it’s dark in side.
It’s where my de mons hide.
It’s where my de mons hide.

- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes — "Demons" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature Eb, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
- What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
- Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
- Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
- Yes — slow the tempo from 90 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
- Why can I click a note in the score?
- Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
- Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
- Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
