My demons
May 4, 2018
My demons are calling my name
they're screeching out on my
backwards pain
Don't worry about my sillyness
and empty promises
Going back to me
My demons don't define me
don't defy
My demons feeding on
what I have left of me
They're part of me
My demons don't define me
My demons don't define me
They just want my insanity
My sadness
My last hope of happiness
My demons are haunting me
They're calling out your name
(Oh)

Music for me is a way to escape, and during the time of writing this song I felt weighed down by things that I was insecure about. I felt like they were leeching off of anything that made me happy. It was also shortly after going through a breakup, hence the last line "They're calling out your name". It's something that haunted me, just how we say our demons haunt us.
