G
When I think of you in the city,
D
The sight of you among the sites.
G
I get this sudden sinking feeling,
D
Of a man about to fly.
Am7
Never kept me up before,
D
Now I've been awake for days.
Am7
I can't fight it anymore,
D
I'm going through an awkward phase.
 
D
 
 
G
I am secretly in love with,
D
Everyone that I grew up with.
G
Do my crying underwater,
D
I can't get down any farther.
Am7
All my drowning friends can see,
D
Now there is no running from it.
Am7
It's become the crux of me,
D
I wish that I could rise above it.

           G
But I stay down,
          D
With my demons.

With my demons.

G
Passing buzzards in the sky,
D
Alligators in the sewers.
G
I don't even wonder why,
D
Hide among the under views.
Am7
Huddle with them all night long,
D
The worried talk to god goes on.
Am7
I sincerely tried to love it,
D
Wish that I could rise above it.

Em
Can I stay here? I can sleep
D
On the floor
Em
Paint the blood and hang the palms,
D
On the door.
Em
Do not think I'm going places 
D
anymore,
Em
Wanna see the sun come up 
D
above New York.
 
 
Am7
Oh, everyday I start so great,
D
Then the sunlight dims.
Am7
Less I've learned, the more I see 
D
the pythons and the limbs.
Am7
Do not know what's wrong with me,
D
Sours in the cup.
Am7
When I walk into a room,
  D
I do not light it up.
D
Fuck.
 
 
           Em
But I stay down,

With my demons.

With my demons.

With my demons.
