Lyrics
We've all got our demons
But mine are the meanest
They won't let me get too close
To the one I need the most
They're angry and violent
They're sure uninvited
So you better run away
For my demons come to play
I was a mental patient in my past life
Ask all my cell mates, I know my way around a knife
So I know when to wait, and I know when to strike
And I know what it's like to never get a wink of sleep at night
These evil entities are seeping deep inside of me now
So it'd be safer for us both if you just step the fuck down
But I can't persuade you to evade the beast
You poked him, now he needs to feed
You asked for this, now come and see the crazy fuckin' side of me
This is so horrific, and it's so ironic, everything I never wanted
Fought it, thought it through until I came to the conclusion
That there's just no gettin' through
No use in tryin', cryin', plead the fifth, shit
I'll be the only one to lose if I try to resist
So don't look in there direction
Just pretend they don't exist
And while I fade into oblivion
You can remain oblivious
We've all got our demons
But mine are the meanest
They won't let me get too close
To the one I need the most
They're angry and violent
They're sure uninvited
So you better run away
For my demons come to play
If I was you, I'd take a couple steps back
I don't control the beast, so I don't know when he attacks
It's not my fault if you're the one that got too close
If he decides to rip the skin off of your bones and wear you like a coat
I think you'll find my other side is disturbed
It's got a long list of enemies and your bitch ass is first
And you're the one that brought this on
All of this is self-inflicted, and you know you did me wrong
But you just love to play the victim
Look what you created
You thought I could take it
God, were you mistaken?
I think I am breaking
This is so horrific, and it's so ironic, everything I never wanted
Fought it, thought it through until I came to the conclusion
That there's just no gettin' through
No use in tryin', cryin', plead the fifth
I'll be the only one to lose if I try to resist
So don't look in there direction
Just pretend they don't exist
And while I fade into oblivion
You remain oblivious
We've all got our demons (we've all got our demons)
But mine are the meanest (mine are the meanest)
They won't let me get too close (no)
To the one I need the most (yeah)
They're angry and violent (they're angry and violent)
They're sure uninvited (uninvited)
So you better run away
For my demons come to play (play)
