Demons - The Love Me Nots

the one in the back

said he wanted me once

he stuck around for a minute

and buttons came undone

there against the wall

the one I tried to love

still don’t know what

I was thinking of

leave your demons

here with me

I’ll entertain them

in my dreams

I’ll feed them well

their devotee

your demons

won’t let me be

your demons

there’s the lovely one

who’d drive ten hours

to creep into my bed

and leave mourning flowers

there in the hall

the one who broke my heart

I looked up at his window while he tore my soul apart

they lurk and tease

all the pretty boys

I’m gonna need

something stronger

to drown out

their demon noise
