Lyrics
Demon Alcohol
Lyrics Paul Dempsey/California
(v1)
You hurt those that are close
The ones you care for the most
Ones you shouldn’t hurt at all
(v2)
But you’re never really thinking
It’s all about your drinking
That demon alcohol
(chorus)
You need to change, we say
But it’s like talking to a wall
There will be a price to pay
You’re heading for a fall
You can’t go a single day
Without that demon alcohol
(v3)
We tire of the endless lies
And the countless alibis
We will not answer your call
Instrumental part
(bridge)
We are starting to doubt
You will ever dry out
You’ve lost all control
You’ve lost your soul
To that demon alcohol
(chorus)
You need to change, we say
But it’s like talking to a wall
There will be a price to pay
You’re heading for a fall
You can’t go a single day
Without that demon alcohol
(outro)
One day you’ll understand the cost
When you measure what you’ve lost
