Lyrics[]
Blaine:
Nothing's gonna harm you
Not while I'm around
Nothing's gonna harm you, no, sir
Not while I'm around
Rachel:
Demons are prowling everywhere
Nowadays
Blaine:
I'll send 'em howling
I don't care
I've got ways
Mercedes:
No one's gonna hurt you
No one's gonna dare
Others can desert you, not to worry
Whistle, I'll be there
Sam:
Demons'll charm you with a smile
For a while
But in time
Nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around
Blaine:
Being close and being clever
Ain't like being true
I don't need to, I would never
Hide a thing from you
Like some
Demons'll charm you with a smile
For a while
But in time
Nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around
