Demons |
| When I think of you in the city, the sight of you among the sites |
| I get this sudden sinking feeling of a man about to fly |
| Never kept me up before, now I’ve been awake for days |
| I can’t fight it anymore, I’m going through an awkward phase |
| I am secretly in love with everyone that I grew up with |
| Do my crying underwater, I can’t get down any farther |
| All my drowning friends can see, now there is no running from it |
| It’s become the crux of me, I wish that I could rise above it |
| But I stay down with my demons |
| But I stay down with my demons |
| Bats and buzzards in the sky, alligators in the sewers |
| I don’t even wonder why, hide among the younger viewers |
| Huddle with them all night long, the worried talk to God goes on |
| I sincerely tried to love it, wish that I could rise above it |
| But I stay down with my demons |
| But I stay down with my demons |
| Can I stay here? |
| I can sleep on the floor |
| Paint the blood and hang the palms on the door |
| Do not think I’m going places anymore |
| Wanna see the sun come up above New York |
| Oh, every day I start so great, then the sunlight dims |
| The less I look, the more I see the pythons in the limbs |
| Do not know what’s wrong with me, the sour is in the cut |
| When I walk into a room, I do not light it up |
| Fuck |
| So I stay down with my demons |
| I stay down with my demons |
| I stay down with my demons |
| I stay down with my demons |
