Inner Demons

by Jo Christ

Trayia Beals Inner Demons is sweetly sentimental. The intro leads to a cohesive narrative which isn’t as grim as the introductory quotation would imply. The downheartedness is always offset by an upbeat undertone of hope. This EP is a treasure that reflects a delicate balance of gloom/promise, familiar/new, and direct/elliptical. Inner Demons is easy to get lost in and even easier to fall in love with. Favorite track: sympathy.

inner demons 02:56
took time to find you it's time I tried to couldn't define you like I'd been lied to all you ever wanted was to lead and be strong but when the plan's put into action the results come out wrong just another ending to a beautiful day there's a devil on my shoulder wishing worries away all you ever needed was to be a disease & when I look into your eyes I get weak in the knees I'm in my feelings, watching TV my inner demons whisper sweet dreams never meant much once you end up back home you have no guts and you have no backbone at all took time to find you it's time I tried to couldn't define you like I'd been lied to all you ever wanted was to lead and be strong but when the plan's put into action the results come out wrong took time to find you it's time I tried to couldn't define you like I'd been lied to all you ever needed was to be a disease & when I look into your eyes I get weak in the knees

sympathy 02:26
all stressed out, see it in my face everything's got to be replaced i don't know what to do i'll stick around with you workin' hard on a memory all my friends and enemies they don't know what to say it's just another day what are we gonna do about it, now? when it all comes falling down and there's people all around and they look at you and say I'm sorry, I'm sorry I'm sorry, I'm sorry

here's hoping we hold steady when the sea gets rough at times it's hard to be enough I'm always pushing on my luck you're hoping that I can be any help at all I'm always pushing on my luck when the goin's getting tough but you grit your teeth and then you button up your coat & I will do my very best to try and keep us both afloat there's been attempts of keeping me out of the know and the soggy windy weather did a number on my soul lifelines aren't landlines when there is no telephone so come with me my darlin, both your hands upon the rope and I will try to get us home you're resting easy there's no reason for concern yet time and time again this is the lesson you must learn trials by fire that were easily subdued we watched the horizon turn to shades of purple blue certain circumstances start to feel like good news like a visit from an old friend or the fading of a bruise after the day passed I wished it were mine having spent all excess energy pretending I was fine lifelines aren't landlines when there is no telephone so come with me my darling both your hands upon the rope & I will try to get us home oh I must try to get you home

empty words 02:05
say you don't care but I'm in despair so say what you need make me believe say what you love can you say it's enough? say your concerns say your empty words
