Demons Lyrics by Nerv

We’re All Patients Here

2022

(Intro - Spoken)
Can you sign this document right here for me sir?
What?
Right here, first and last name...
Don't you want to get better?

(Verse 1)
I stay inside my head
With voices I defend
They are my only friends
They’ll stick it out with me til the end
So sign your name, check in
(We’re all patients here…)

(Pre-chorus)
Picking up, picking up pieces of the old me that I needed
I died and made you king so you could end my suffering
Drink it up, dive off the deep end
A part of me forever left bleeding
There’s no divinity inside the liquor’s killing me

(Chorus)
Say, don’t you say that you need me right now
Cause I can’t think ‘less I drink with these demons around
I try to drown my pain and wash away every better part of me

(Verse 2)
I stay inside my bed
With skeletons I’ve fed
They are my only friends they’ll stick it out with me when I’m dead
‘Cause I lost my head
But I’m—

(Pre-chorus)
Picking up, picking up pieces of the old me that I needed
I died and made you king so you could end my suffering
Drink it up, dive off the deep end
A part of me forever left bleeding
There’s no divinity inside the liquor’s killing me

(Chorus)
Say, don’t you say that you need me right now
Cause I can’t think ‘less I drink with these demons around
I try to drown my pain and wash away every better part of me

(Bridge)
Would you say, would you say…
Would you say you know me better?
Do you see a better me?
Do you see? Do I seem dead inside?
Would you say, would you say…
Would you say you know me better?
Do you see a better me?
‘Cause I need to know if he’s still around for me

(Chorus)
Say, don’t you say that you need me right now
Cause I can’t think ‘less I drink with these demons around
I try to drown my pain and wash away every better part of me
