Annihilator - The Demon You Know Lyrics






I gotta make a change, there's too many things goin' wrong
I'm getting tired of the routine, it's always the same old song
I'm not getting much sleep, having trouble paying my bills
There's only one thing that I really need but they say it kills

You try to run, try to hide
It doesn't matter where you go
It's all around, it's inside
The demon you know

Give it up, don't fight the feeling
Come along, I know you want some more
Well you might just win the battle
But I'm always gonna win the war

I think it might be what I'm drinking but maybe just a little too much
It hasn't been even twenty-four hours and I need my crutch
I can't stop the pacing, sweat pours offmy sleeve
My heart is racin' and I can't breathe

And you better believe it's a war and a tough one to win
But if you really want it, maybe with some help
You can beat this, yes, you can

I think I got this beat now
I'm all done the purge but there'll be no time for celebration
I'm really gonna have to fight the urge and resist the temptation

    The Demon You Know


    I gotta make a change, there's too many things goin' wrong
    I'm getting tired of the routine, it's always the same old song
    I'm not getting much sleep, having trouble paying my bills
    There's only one thing that I really need but they say it kills

    You try to run, try to hide
    It doesn't matter where you go
    It's all around, it's inside
    The demon you know

    Give it up, don't fight the feeling
    Come along, I know you want some more
    Well you might just win the battle
    But I'm always gonna win the war

    I think it might be what I'm drinking but maybe just a little too much
    It hasn't been even twenty-four hours and I need my crutch
    I can't stop the pacing, sweat pours offmy sleeve
    My heart is racin' and I can't breathe

    And you better believe it's a war and a tough one to win
    But if you really want it, maybe with some help
    You can beat this, yes, you can

    I think I got this beat now
    I'm all done the purge but there'll be no time for celebration
    I'm really gonna have to fight the urge and resist the temptation

    No sabía que megadeth había sacado disco nuevo. No espera...

    I.... T....

    Ivan Tejeda no seas mamón jaja

    I.... T....

    Muy buena !! ajajajajajajajaja

  9. C.... C....

    Same lyrical theme as No Surrender, One You Serve, The Rush, etc. However, fantastic new song.

    C.... C....

    So in other words, it's about drug use?

    If so, then you forgot to mention Ritual...a song that's entirely about analogizing religion with drug use.
    Ditto Chasing the High, which is far more blatant.
    Ditto quite a few more, such as Demon Dance, Invite It, and (probably) Speed.
