Demons

The National

Explicit
When I think of you in the city The sight of you among the sights 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 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 I stay down With my demons I stay down With my demons 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, everyday I start so great Then the sunlight dims Less I look the more I see the pythons and the limbs Do not know what's wrong with me Sours 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 --- Demons - The National
