Demon Eyes Lyrics

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 backSo 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 time's sake
You've done no damage yetThe way you smile all the time
Crooked badge, you're spitting lies
I'm all alone in my home my only friendI tried to look you in the eye
I tried to look you in the eye

I tried to tell you I'm alive
I tried, I tried
I tried to tell youWhen there's just no medicine
For those lies of mine
I'm terrified what I might find
When I hide behind those demon eyesWhy'd you take the time you're taking
To undermine 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 meThe way you smile all the time
Crooked badge, you're spitting lies
I'm alone in my home, you'll bury meI tried to look you in the eye
I tried to look you in the eye
I tried to tell you I'm alive
I tried, I tried
I tried to tell youWhen there's just no medicine
For those lies of mine
I'm so terrified what I might find
When I hide behind those demon eyes, yeahYou love to look me in the eye, to tell me you're alive
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 aliveYou love to look me in the eye, to tell me you're alive
You've got to demonize
You love to look me in the eye, to tell me you're alive
You've got to demonize
Oh, ooh, yeahYou gotta know I tried
You gotta know whyI tried, I tried
To look you in the eye, to tell you I'm alive
I tried, I tried
I tried to tell youWhen there's just no medicine
For those lies of mine
Still terrified what I might find
When I hide behind those demon eyes
