(The) Demon

(album: Skeleton Coast - 2020)

I can't justify any of this
I am lonely and collared and pissed
I am a rat in a cage
I am a demon filled up with hubris and bullshit and shame

I am drunk, I am ugly
I am worse than you think that I am
You could be my savior baby
But baby I don't give a damn

I am the dying, I am the plague
I am the sum of this mess I have made
I am the garbage can, I am the trash
I am this cautionary tale you can have

And I came into this shit all alone
And I'll rock that same program when it's time to go

I am the demon, I am the hell
Get the fuck out of here, fend for yourself
I am the demon, I am the hell
Get the fuck out of here, fend for yourself
But know...
I am the demon
I am the demon
I am the demon
I am the demon
I am the demon
I am the demon
I am the demon
I am the demon
