Demon Eyes
Looking out my narrow window,
I'll tell you what I see.
Pit bulls are on the streets,
They're closing in on me,
Could it be this paranoia keeping me intact?
Lock the door and load my gun,
This time I'm fighting back.
So take a look across your desk,
You tell me why I'm here.
You've been making all that money,
Preying on the fear.
I can see your demon eyes,
The target has been set,
Take a shot for old times sake,
You've done no damage yet.
The way you smile, all the time,
Crooked badge, you're spitting lies,
I'm alone, in my home, my only friend.
I tried to look you in the eye,
I tried to tell you I'm alive,
I tried, I tried to tell you,
When there's just no medicine,
For those lies of mine,
I'm terrified what I might find,
What you hide behind those demon eyes.
Why'd you take the time your taking,
To undermind my name?
Does it help you sleep at night,
To play that righteous game?
Why'd you say those things you said?
Words that you don't mean,
Two faces, telling lies, telling lies to me.
The way you smile, all the time,
Crooked badge, you're spitting lies,
I'm alone, in my home, you'll bury me.
I tried to look you in the eye,
I tried to tell you I'm alive,
I tried, I tried to tell you that,
When there's just no medicine,
For those lies of mine,
I'm so terrified what I might find,
What you hide behind, those demon eyes, yeah.
You love, you love to look me in the eye,
To tell me you're alive.
You love, you love to look me in the eye,
To tell me you're alive.
You love, you love to look me in the eye,
To tell me you're alive.
You love, you love to look me in the eye,
To tell me you're alive, you've got to demonize.
You love, you love to look me in the eye,
To tell me you're alive, you've got to demonize.
Ow, ooh yeah.
You gotta know I tried,
You gotta know why.
I tried to look you in the eye,
I tried to tell you I'm alive,
I tried, I tried to tell you,
When there's just no medicine,
For those lies of mine,
Still terrified what I might find,
What you hide behind those demon eyes.
