[Verse 1]
Apathy was a game I never played
'Cause agony is a feeling I've been steeped in slow
Swapping all my smiles for a scowl
And sheltering my shortcomings from every prying eye
[Chorus]
But I'm letting the old demons out
Bringing down the walls around
All the denial and the doubt
[Verse 2]
I won't be satisfied 'til the saccharine faces fade
Making a mockery of mythologies and tried traditions
For I was blind, now I can see
Every obstacle through soliloquy clears its path in front of me
[Chorus]
But I'm letting the old demons out
Bringing down the walls around
All the denial and the doubt
[Bridge]
And if I suddenly sink into a cowardly drink
To drown out the swarm of the hive-minded bees
Strike the spirits from my rigid lips and pull me out
The tide all tumbling in
Apathy was a game I never played
'Cause agony is a feeling I've been steeped in slow
Swapping all my smiles for a scowl
And sheltering my shortcomings from every prying eye
[Chorus]
But I'm letting the old demons out
Bringing down the walls around
All the denial and the doubt
[Verse 2]
I won't be satisfied 'til the saccharine faces fade
Making a mockery of mythologies and tried traditions
For I was blind, now I can see
Every obstacle through soliloquy clears its path in front of me
[Chorus]
But I'm letting the old demons out
Bringing down the walls around
All the denial and the doubt
[Bridge]
And if I suddenly sink into a cowardly drink
To drown out the swarm of the hive-minded bees
Strike the spirits from my rigid lips and pull me out
The tide all tumbling in
