I wish I were a demon, cause' I'm tired of being human
They just sit around and watch you while you're sleeping
They don't have that voice in their head saying, "you're better off dead"
Why can't my demons go away?
I wish I were a demon
Cause' I'm tired of being restless
If I'm not perfect, guess that means I'm worthless
I'd fix the problems in my life, but I'm the one holding the knife
Why can't my demons go away?
Red eyes and glistening fangs, can you take the pain away?
I'm trapped inside my prison of a brain
I'd rather be feared than be scared, I'm being torn apart again
Cause' I've got these demons in my head
Red eyes and glistening fangs, can you take the pain away?
I'm trapped inside my prison of a brain
I'd rather be feared than be scared, I'm being torn apart again
Cause' I've got these demons in my head
All I ever wanted was to escape from here
Can't tell which thoughts are my own, and which ones were placed there
I'm trapped inside a nightmare, and I'm forever asleep
Without someone to wake me
I wish I were a demon, cause' I'm losing my goddamn mind
I've been wasting time thinking things will be just fine
There's no off switch for my brain, and it's driving me insane
Why can't my demons go away?
And if I were a demon, would my demons go away?
If I were a demon, would my demons go away?
