Demons, draft #4/final video

Well, this is the last video I'm doing of "Demons" for now. It's been a fun road, with each performance and each recording seeing how I can present and see myself in new ways, as well as learning and practicing how to transform the song, my use of my voice, my expressions, and most important in this work, the beat-work. Me as human drum. For other videos of "Demons," visit http://justinfair.com/tag/demons/. Lyrics are below:

Demons -- An Original Work by Justin Orlando Fair
Created 7/29/11

I'm worn down,
I won't make a sound.
I can't leave this alone,
My heart is set in stone.

Leave me behind if I'm not good enough.
I have been blind, my skin's turned tough.
I can't fight no more, I'm sure,
This is the right decision...

I know what I'm fighting for,
Gonna make this division.
I can't do it alone,
Gonna avoid this collision.

They're worth more to me than they're worth to you,
Can't sell them to the devil and leave what's left to you.
I used to breathe, ignore all the pain,
But I can't bare to see you suffering.

I am worn down,
So I will make a sound.
I can't do this alone,
My heart is set in stone.

Baby, this door's closed,
Please don't go.
They lie on the floor, I'm sure.
Baby now I see,
Forgiveness is key,
Baby, now I see.
Please forgive me,
Please don't leave me.
