LYRICS
I didn’t know I’m neurotic
I never thought I was scared of dying at all
I always thought my biggest fear would somehow be love related, not fentanyl.
I can blame the addiction for that
With the additional countdown to a heart attack
When the beating comes from the irregular drum
I swear to every single God I’m done, it’s the last time
Everyone knows it’s a lie
By the time I’m feeling fine again
It’s just another line.
And another line.
All the parts we hate start adding up
Until we find ourselves with more regret than blood.
The moment we don’t recognize the person inside our skin
We’re losing the fight, eaten alive by the cannibal within.
In a major turn of events
It turns out I’m depressed.
They say I use jokes and joy to avoid the realization.
I can think of solutions for that,
Just turn on the radio and cock it back
I just don’t wanna blow my brains out to Hotel California.
All the parts we hate start adding up
Until we find ourselves with more regret than blood.
The moment we can’t recognize the body we’re living in
We’re losing the fight, eaten alive by the cannibal within.
That overwhelming feeling
The pressure in my chest
To swim against the sinking feeling
That today might be my last
But everything looks bigger
Through the mirror of the sea
Come see how lonely of a hunter
The heart tends to be.
All the parts we hate start adding up
Until we find ourselves with more regret than blood.
The moment we don’t recognize the person inside our skin
We’re losing the fight, eaten alive by the cannibal within.

[@kaiserwilhelm5935]

One of my favorite songs of all time. Throat yelling the “I swear to every single god I’m done” is therapeutic

[@autumngarcia3082]

Sammmmme

[@mgtexan4721]

I've been there. Not as melodic as him of course but it was always a false promise.

[@venomdonut6905]

It really is though. I'd love to meet this dude and tell him to his face that his music literally has saved my life.

[@lorilolamm]

Yes ❤

[@hiddenhydewithinhim]

I used to play you at the bar I worked in... whenever you singed something (dark humour) fun, people here laughted their asses off, and whenever you've been real, they went: 'shit... this is real.'' Today the bar is closed, probably forever, but I believe this would be the realest thing every single one of us would hear since then. And I will reach them with that.

[@CvlifornivCulture]

Never in my life have I felt more heard. Every one of amigos songs. But this one hits so close to home. At the exact time I needed it. Like he always writes about me.

[@autumngarcia3082]

Sammme

[@pirateyjoe]

not sure i've ever related to a lyric quite like "i just don’t wanna blow my brains out to hotel california"

[@OxfordTelescope1317]

It’s heavy understanding what it means. I’ve been through struggles with suicidal idealization. It’s one of heaviest lyrics of this song. Danny is simply a genius.

[@seaperu1]

one of my favorite Cohen Bros. films lines ... ''I hate the Eagles man''

[@jayrock3555]

One of the lyrics that resonates with me I feel like he's saying a lot with it but perhaps that's just my interpretation

[@scottwright927]

This hit soooo hard. Struggling with this to this day. It's heartbreaking yet somehow comforting how real your music is. Keep fighting. Even a failed attempt is an attempt and a step forward. Thank you for sharing this.

[@viracocha03]

I feel this one hard.. I went through one hell of a drug addiction and this song is a perfect analogy for my ride through hell and back to sobriety. 8 years clean and it was not until the last couple years I started to feel like what I feel is my true self again. Thank you for your music.

[@autumngarcia3082]

Congratulations ❤ it's literally exactly what it feels like

[@Tboe905]

Brother I'm so glad to have came across your music. Soo much spoken truth that hits too close to home. Love your music

[@derrickclinchofderrickclin9940]

your beard is nice

[@SallionMang]

Flames. I don't often put songs on repeat anymore but this is truly incredible. What an artist.

[@RidgeDeadite]

I love this song, literally cried when I saw it live on Sunday

[@Post-Punk-Ward]

You had me balling like a baby at the wiltern as someone who went through a really bad detox a felt exactly what you described, and I appreciate you explaining to people that may not know how to deal with an individual going through it. Your music has helped me so fucking much! Thank you , sober since 8/18/2020

[@viracocha03]

Congrats my friend. I just wrote a similar comment. This song is a perfect analogy.

[@autumngarcia3082]

Congratulations ❤ sending u love

[@mikosheffield2464]

I forget how many hours I'm sober from the blues but somehow the bottle still finds me. Swear you drop one everytime I'm in my darkest hour. I appreciate your music so much!!

[@autumngarcia3082]

Proud of you! That's such a hard battle keep goin

[@autumngarcia3082]

I hope by now it's 2 months ❤

[@seventfour]

God, I love the cinematography of this video and the way the lyrics show up subtly in the corner is so good. As for the song itself; it’s very beautifully written; the visceral feelings aren’t lost or muddled with the lyrics. I find myself resonating with the song in both the sense of a creeping addiction, as well as an outside force causing changes that I never wished to see in me.

[@jeremyspeciale5895]

I watched my brother fight this fight. He didn't make it. The cannibal got him in the end. The first time I heard this song I saw him and his struggles and my struggles as a recovering addict. The fight and the struggle is real. To all who suffer I hope you find the strength to make it out alive. To those who have made it out stay strong.

[@steakknives]

No one makes it out alive. So we have to make our lives meaningful. Just because our lives will eventually end doesn't mean we should give up, quite the opposite.

[@seventfour]

Glad I could make it to the premiere, excited to see this!

[@toxicfpv304]

stoked.... so want to see you live again.... last time was at carolina rebelion and i sang everysong with you and you seemed to be amused

[@Tastyfeet74]

Every song is brilliant. He can do no wrong. I'm just glad to be alive at the same time. 🖤🤟😊

[@dustinfrost8696]

The instrumental pairs so sweetly with the vocals.

[@jhord8879]

This video just goes so hard on convincing me this truly is one of Danny's best. The imagery, the music, and the pure vibes of it all... I cannot get enough, and I am dying waiting for the new album to drop.

[@thomasandersen802]

Love the song and the artwork i've seen for your new songs/album:)

[@ihansn777]

This song cuts so much deeper after losing my brother to a fentnyl overdose last year.

[@AutumnRuins]

My brother died almost two years ago after taking Fentanyl. I thought about him while listening to this, too. It hurts. I'm so sorry for your loss.

[@ihansn777]

@@AutumnRuins Thank you, I'm sorry for your loss as well.

[@WILD_HAIR]

So so sooooo so sooo so so good

[@geneticgarbitch8848]

Not since ween, has any other musicians even come close to this awesome, as an addict and admirer thanks for making this music, it means the world to me

[@torstenkuhn3879]

[@timmmychanga]

I swear every song this guy sings hits my soul.

[@SkinZ666uk]

[@TheMindofBruce]

Amigo the Devil is a mood.

[@stefaniegreer1627]

❤❤❤

[@blackmetaltilldeath9374]

The whole world needs to play this for the people. They love who are stuck on the stupid drug. I know somebody and i'm gonna play for them today

[@thecomedian5933]

Amazing as always. Cant wait for the rest of the album!

[@whitetrashbud9523]

I m so in love with this song.Can't wait for more ❤

[@saradixon3185]

Omg, this song is everything to me right now....

[@louischibbaro2634]

Absolutely incredible

[@n00n47]

Conocí a Amigo the devil por su presentación ayer en el Hell & Heaven y soy tan feliz de haberlo encontrado, ¡me encanta! Gracias por tanta música genial.

[@miguelsalomon2489]

X2 ahora estoy enamorado de su música.

[@margiburniwilli]

This is dope. Such a good song

[@dancupp3690]

[@SonOfGalactus]

my best friend sent me this. this is one of the most beautiful songs ive ever heard.

[@devonsants]

Can’t wait for the album

[@thatkidlaura15]

I met you at the talent farm years ago!! I’m talking maybe 2016-2018. I bought a CD and I lost it shortly after. To this day, I still think about your music. Such a unique sound to your voice with beautiful lyrics. I looked all over iTunes all these years even last week I searched “light up a fire that will keep us both warm”.. google couldn’t find ya nor iTunes. Every now and then I long to hear these songs from the guy I met at the talent farm in Florida again. I am so happy I stumbled upon you today!!! Now In the age of Apple Music I downloaded all your songs!

[@chrismoede2885]

Relate hard with this one!! Good stuff brother 🔥

[@mozariahrain8363]

This is absolutely beautiful. My soul hurts, but in a good way. My saddness needed this, desperately ❤

[@caph3949]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@strangewayfaringstranger]

Relatable lyrics to the bone. "The moment we don’t recognize the person inside our skin We’re losing the fight, eaten alive by the cannibal within. In a major turn of events It turns out I’m depressed."

[@danrudge5997]

ART

[@pariahneiderleben3445]

Holy shit dude...another poet being able to put it all into words...thank you!!

[@PartisanOgrae]

It was pretty great to see you perform this live at Emo's. Long live Amigo the Devil!

[@LimeyRedneck]

🤠💜

[@miguelsalomon2489]

No puedo esperar a que regreses a mexico, ahora en un show en solitario ✨️

[@Aaroncvx]

Incredible song, what else can I say?

[@justaguy6701]

I hope you come to croatia sometime, ill be waiting!

[@joeyjosephenslen7199]

just saw you in concert last weekend. This easily has become my favorite song. It reaches deep into my soul and fills me with a comforting sorrow.

[@citizenplane5840]

Wow I am an ex addict. And the metaphor of the cannibal within is genius

[@Gatorkw]

One of those artists that gets being human.

[@BTKYG]

[@AlphaWolfun]

its hard to recognize the experience you've had in others when we expect things to change though no matter how much we keep loving both seem to always come to the same outcomes with little patience to express respects its always a war we can't help express in every attempt to.

[@margotchanning1822]

Where my fellowship at?❤️🌹

[@SkazwalkerMusic]

Come to Grand Rapids or Lansing Michigan dude. You have love around here. Great fucking songs.

[@barstowbear4232]

Randomly searched for his music 7 hours after the release? My lucky day

[@Lil_Gaps]

I know it's far-fetched, but I think Amigo would be great in a collab with chris webby, Little Foot, or grant faithful/annoyed.. I think the vocals would mesh nicely, could make for a god mode track!

[@exiskeepingmysonfromme]

I could use a call. The cannibal is the good part I'm trying not to lose. Please help

[@robbiehill433]

Peaky Blinders vibes af. Great song.

[@jaytimgren9676]

I'm so enamored for this song. It's my last listen... Everyone knows it's a lie.

[@Damon0mania]

So I'm not alone. That's what I heard.

[@derrickclinchofderrickclin9940]

[@elizabethscott785]

I love your art. Kerouac would be proud. 🍑

[@manfmalachi]

If you're an addict, you helped write this song

[@SonOfFloki]

If i ever kill myself, this song will be playing.

[@michelefreeman6512]

HERE APRIL 2024, ANYONE ELSE?

[@xDPx-zh7vr]

Ever have one of those players that make a huge impact on a team but everytime they touch the ball you just scream NOOOOOOO!!!! Well that sums up Draymond Green. Much like Dennis Rodman you loved to watch the passion and intensity but for God sakes NOOOOOO!!!!!

[@jamesswartout910]

There's something about the Hotel California line that is so relatable to me. It just hits different.

[@blam279]

Sounds like it was written by a person who enjoyed a nod twice in their life, now trying to profit off of an epidemic with a basic song

[@David-kg1hc]

So good

[@dutchrequired]

seriously, the greatest lyricist alive.

[@littlearsehole75]

He keeps writing songs about my junkie a$$. I'm almost clean.
