[Verse 1]
Sittin’ on the block
Sun hittin’ the chrome (oo-yeah!)
Life feels good
But I’m not alone
There’s a shadow lurkin’
Smooth as silk (uh-huh)
Whisperin’ lies
Like honey and milk (whoa-oh!)
Told my cousin
“Man
Leave that glass!”
He laughed
Said
“Chill
It’s my first
My last”
But the eyes don’t lie
They’re red and dim
I see the demon start to take him in (uh!)
[Prechorus]
It creeps in slow
Then grabs ya fast
You blink once
And the good times pass
[Chorus]
Liquid demon
Oh
It’ll steal your soul (steal it!)
Take your brother
Your sister
Make ‘em lose control (oo-yeah!)
It’s a thief in the night
With a devilish grin
Don’t let it pull you under
Don’t let it win
[Verse 2]
Uncle Joe had a laugh like thunder (ha!)
Now his voice is gone
Buried six feet under
The bottle told him it could ease his pain
But left him cold
Lost in the rain (uh, uh!)
Tears from his kids
Yeah
They fill the room
Mama’s prayers can’t lift the gloom
The demon don’t care
It just wants its prey
Sippin’ your life
Day by day (oo-wee!)
