Thump

[Verse 1]
Don't blame this all on yourself
Your vulnerability matters
And there's no entertainment here
Not for miles and miles and
Take that pound sign off your head
You're no plaything, you're no product
You are everything
Yes, you are everything and nothing
Echo, echo, echo chambered
Sewage piped into the ocean
This illusion, mock delusion
This, nationwide facade
Idolatry of the idiot
As we're crushed into the mire
Just play nice, play nice
Get back to work, shut up, play nice

[Refrain]
With, demons
Demons

[Verse 2]
All this failure masked as victory
Reinvention for attention
This, isn't about bravado
This, isn't pushing ego
And here comes that pounding boot now
Getting louder, getting louder
And here comes that pounding boot
Tongues out, tongues out

[Refrain]
For, demons
Demons
Demons
Demons

[Verse 3]
I constantly concede my ground to louder mouths, bigger egos
Loaded bullies with no chops, no marks, all barks
And I want to be strong, to stand up for myself, not not break down in the face of wealth and status
But it's drilled in
I downplay everything, I've convinced myself my skills are worthless
But I'm trying to relearn, to find confidence from somewhere
Lift my head
That day of dread will come, so hold back on the realisation that the best years are long gone
Red marked debt letters and the arrogance and the jealousy of the young
As we morph into that miserable loner in the darkened corner of the room
Opinionated, hated, inebriated
And it's not even closing time
Yet you're ready to go, it's fine
And yes this place is a mess, it's broken, but we're strong
So let's not back down
Let's not back down
Don't turn away
We can win this, we can win
