Demons

Demons (惡魔) (Explicit) - The National

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

I stay down

With my demons

Passing buzzards in the sky

Alligators in the sewers

I don't even wonder why

Hide among the unbelievers

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 dips

Less I've learned

The more I see the pythons and the limbs

Do not know what's wrong with me

Sours in the cup

When I walk into a room

I do not light it up

F*ck

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
