[Verse 1]
There's a demon inside of me
And there's nowhere left to run this time
Got me singing from the wrong hymn sheet
Got me cooking with a pocket knife
[Verse 2]
There's a demon inside of me
And he's drinking on the job again
Lost his wallet and lost his keys
Then threw the bottle at his best friend's head
[Chorus]
Stay close, don't leave
I'll let you trick me with another lie
I'll play along, I won't cheat
I don't wanna live a quiet life
[Post-Chorus]
I don't wanna live a quiet life
[Verse 3]
There's a demon inside of me
And he's itching for another scratch
Temper tantrums in the street
I saw him skipping through the tear gas
[Chorus]
Stay close, don't leave
I'll let you trick me with another lie
I'll play along, I won't cheat
I don't wanna live a quiet life
Oh, stick around with me
Let me sink into your burning eyes
It's so hard to lose a missing piece
I don't wanna live a quiet life
[Post-Chorus]
I don't wanna live a quiet life
I don't wanna live a quiet life
[Outro]
There's a demon inside of me
And there's nowhere left to run this time
