Demons

Sometimes they're in a bottle
 Sometimes a pair of high-heel shoes
 Some come rolled in paper
 Some have six strings and only play the blues
 Once you've met the Devil
 There ain't no way he'll let you be
 When I'm not chasing demons
 There's demons chasing me
 The skeletons in closets
 Ghosts underneath the bed
 They hide out in pictures
 And words better left unsaid
 They hang around like perfume
 And haunt me like an ancient melody
 When I'm not chasing demons
 There's demons chasing me
 There's things that I can't leave alone
 'Cause they won't leave me alone
 'Cause what I want ain't what I need
 Still I reach for the things I crave
 And better try to run away
 Maybe I'm afraid of being free
 'Cause when I'm not chasing demons
 There's demons chasing me
 So roll one up and light it
 Pick up my old guitar
 I'm playing 'Crossroads'
 Drinking whiskey from a mason jar
 There's heartache at my front door
 Says she needs my company
 When I'm not chasing demons
 There's demons chasing me
 There's things that I can't leave alone
 'Cause they won't leave me alone
 What I want ain't what I need
 Still I reach for the things I crave
 Better try to run away
 Am I afraid of being free? You tell me
 'Cause when I'm not chasing demons
 There's demons chasing me
 When I'm not chasing demons
 There's demons chasing me
 There's demons chasing me
 There's demons chasing me
 When I'm not chasing demons
 There's demons chasing me
 There's demons chasing me
 Demons chasing me
 There's demons chasing me
 When I'm not chasing demons
 There's demons chasing me
