Neon Demons

Woke up with a war in my ribs

Teeth in my thoughts, they bite when I slip

Shadow in the mirror keep mockin' my name

Says, "You and me the same, we the spark and the flame"

Yeah

Talkin' to myself in the glass

"Why you always runnin' from the cracks in your past?"

Heart on alert, mind on attack

Angel on my shoulder but he never calls back

I’ve been dancin’ with my demons (hey!)

Two-step with the voices in my head

We go round and round this ceiling

Till the darkness turnin' blue and red

I’ve been dancin’ with my demons

They spin me, then they drag me to the deep

But I lead ’em, I don’t need ’em

I make ’em move to the beat, to the beat

Yeah, they love it when I’m losin’ my grip

Slide in my ear, "Let it all just slip"

Told ’em, "If you wanna stay, gotta pay that rent"

So I charge ’em every secret that I never once spent

Step back

See ’em flicker in the strobe of my pain

Every bad memory, every old stain

Turn fear into fuel when it squeezes my lungs

Put the hurt in a verse, let it bleed off my tongue (uh)

I’ve been dancin’ with my demons (whoa)

Two-step with the voices in my head

We go round and round this ceiling

Till the darkness turnin' blue and red

I’ve been dancin’ with my demons

They spin me, then they drag me to the deep

But I lead ’em, I don’t need ’em

I make ’em move to the beat, to the beat

Hands up

Every scar that you hide, let it shine in the light

Hands up

If your monsters only move when you move in the night

Hands up

We gon’ turn this fear into a stage, into fire

Hands up

Let your demons be the choir

I’ve been dancin’ with my demons (yeah)

Two-step with the voices in my head

We go round and round this ceiling

Till the darkness turnin' blue and red

I’ve been dancin’ with my demons

They spin me, then they drag me to the deep

But I lead ’em, I don’t need ’em

I make ’em move to the beat, to the beat
