Our Demons by Taqu Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm not a sociable person
Throughout all my life in school
I was left for desertion
The only friends I had held me as a burden
I would act out erratically 'cause inside
I was hurting
It was worse than when my dad left
But I don't blame him
At least he was getting help with his alcoholism
When he came back
We both learned a valuable lesson
And I'm thankful that my mother raised me well when he's missing
But I wish that I could talk to people
Even though I'm skeptical that some of you are evil
I'm focused on the right now
When you stayed up for the sequel
And I'm positive that heaven's on the Earth
Even though it ain't peaceful
Make something of yourself
'Cause we all got demons that we break through
If you make do with what you got
What you're not is everyone else
And no one's fucking wealth could ever replicate you
Ate through my thick skin
Leaving a shell of a disbanded dissed man
Coming off like verbal diarrhea
Call me Michael Scott
But only act like that with people that I like a lot
[Chorus X2]
"No wonder... Demons"
I'm sorry I... "Can't help you"
"No wonder..."
Everything you ever did is "Coming back around"
[Verse 2]
Believe me, there's no bad blood
If you hurt me in the past
Don't sing me a sad song because
More than likely I was organizing
All the shit you said to absorb it in writing
I don't hold grudges
No scars, but a few smudges
I don't know much, Jenny
But I know what love is
My parents told me that if I worked my hardest
I could shoot an arrow to the stars and hit my target
And I'm sorry for all the friends I used to have
I don't think I ever meant to end it bad
But I'm a bad friend
I like to keep to myself
Maybe I'm obnoxious and deserve what I felt
But no matter what, I play the hand that I'm dealt
I go tell my insecurities to strangle themselves
But I feel guilty
I ain't played Clarinet in three years
And I feel really bad because I knew it so well
There's a lot of things that I regret
If I changed the past there'd be a negative effect
So I sit here writing, waiting, hoping for the best
I think it's time we put our mental demons to the test
[Chorus X2]
I'm not a sociable person
Throughout all my life in school
I was left for desertion
The only friends I had held me as a burden
I would act out erratically 'cause inside
I was hurting
It was worse than when my dad left
But I don't blame him
At least he was getting help with his alcoholism
When he came back
We both learned a valuable lesson
And I'm thankful that my mother raised me well when he's missing
But I wish that I could talk to people
Even though I'm skeptical that some of you are evil
I'm focused on the right now
When you stayed up for the sequel
And I'm positive that heaven's on the Earth
Even though it ain't peaceful

'Cause we all got demons that we break through
