And they said eat eat 
Pick up the bun
Shove it in your gob
And fill up your tum
And she said no I’ve got to run
These demons are giving chase

And they said sleep sleep
You’ll win some day
In another life
In some other way
Get eight hours rest like the doctors say
And maybe the voices will stop

Once twice 
And then twice more
She said I’m either this 
Or a reject wh*re
Take another sniff then hit the floor
I’ll be happier I swear 

Seven eight 
Now you’re a state
Get yourself to bed 
Cause it’s getting late
And she said no 
I will not go 
These demons don’t play fair

Poor thing
She can’t even sing
She tries her best but she starts to sink 
Fry your voice 
It’s not your choice 
When you're fighting bigger things 

Help me
I think I might drown 
Pick up your feet
Put the bottle down 
And she says no I want to choke
Before the sunlight makes me think 

Good night 
You can’t even fight
Don’t look in the mirror
If you don’t want a fright
There’s blood in your hair and black round your eyes
The demons are coming now 

Sleep sleep 
'Cause they’re getting close
If they take you
They’ll leave us alone
Sorry to say but you’ve got to go
You were already halfway there

Dream dream
Rest that pretty head
Did you say your prayers before you climbed into bed
In a slur of words I think I heard
You say that you’d rather be dead

Breathe breathe 
And know you’re okay
In another life
In some other way 
And when you wake up all will have changed 
And somehow you’ll be safe 

Maybe you shouldn't go out tonight 
Maybe you shouldn't, maybe maybe
Maybe you shouldn't go out tonight
Maybe you shouldn't ruin your life
Not this time
Not tonight
Not this time
Not tonight 

Pink gin
Lets the devil in
He shakes his head then you start to sin
We're destined to end but forced to begin
I'll be happier I swear

Throw up
You should grow up
Never been kissed but always been touched
Destined to hate but forced to be loved 
I'll be happier I swear

At home
She starts to moan
Stuck in her thoughts
And trapped on her own
In these four walls this can't be all
I'll be happier I swear 

Up high
Then I'll say goodbye
Dry up your tears it's pathetic to cry
We're forced to live but destined to die
I'll be happier I swear
