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
