Lyrics:

When I think of you in the city
The sight of you among the sights
I get the sudden sinking feeling
Of a man about to fly

It never kept me up before
Now Ive been awake for days
I cant fight it anymore
Im going through an awkward phase

I am secretly in love with
Everyone that I grew up with
Do my crying underwater
I cant get down any farther

All my drowning friends can see
Now there is no running from it
Its 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 dont 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
I 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
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 Im going places anymore
Want to see the sun come up above New York

Oh, every day I start so great
And then the sunlight dims
The less I look the more I see
The pythons in the limbs

Do not know whats 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
