"Know Your Demons" lyrics

"Know Your Demons"

Listen devil I will let you go
I have carried you for years
But my hands are sore
I won't feed you anymore
This is as far as I'll take you
I should've turned you down from the start
My lungs are burning
But you're worn out too
I know your every turn by heart
Like a favorite work of art

Know your demons, they know you
Wherever you go, they go too
Know your demons, they know you
Wherever they go, you're bound to

How dare you talk to a stranger
When you know they'll put you down if they can
And how dare you show me your anger
Your voice is, oh, so weak in my head

Know your demons, they know you
Wherever you go, they go too
Know your demons, they know you
Wherever they go, you're bound to

Your poisonous whispers are boring me
(I've got) I've got other words to comfort my mind
No matter how you twist or how you fight
I'll pull you out, you parasite

Know your demons, they know you
Wherever you go, they go too
Know your demons, they know you
Wherever they go, you're bound to
