Written By Wolves - Demons

Lyrics:
//
Got these feelings that I don’t wanna forget
But every memory is bloodstained, soaked in regret
I don’t wanna need it
But I just can’t leave it, oh oh oh

It’s the kinda thing that tears you up inside
Yet it’s the kinda thing that you feel you have to hide,
I don’t wanna need it,
But I just can’t leave it, oh oh oh

Get the feeling any minute I could break,
It’s like a prison and I’m scraping at the walls to escape,
I don’t wanna need it,
But I just can’t leave it, oh oh oh

What I would give for a day without these shoes,
Made of concrete, dragging me along as I lose,
I don’t wanna need it,
But I just can’t leave it, oh oh oh

Gotta face it,
I’m changing,
I know I went and got complacent,
But I know that,
I can save this,
If I can just go and get my head straight,
And I’m tired of,
Complaining,
Outside, looking for a way in,
But I’m scared that,
I’m fading,
Any minute my head could cave in,
But I’ll keep this,
Rotating,
Though the ground feels like it’s shaking
And the sun is,
Deflating,
And the sky has started breaking,
And I’m worried that,
I’m making,
A scene or seen to be faking,
But I don’t think,
I can take this,
Any longer so I gotta face it.

Ch
They’re holding back my arms,
But they’re telling me this fight is fair
I’m a sucker for their charms,
But these demons are no longer welcome here.

V2
When the dark has gone away outside,
And things don’t feel as hopeless as they did in the night
I don’t wanna need it,
So I gotta leave it, oh oh oh

Do you think that maybe we could try,
Have a conversation, bring this into the light,
I don’t wanna need it,
So I gotta leave it, oh oh oh

Ch
They’re holding back my arms,
But they’re telling me the fight is fair
I’m a sucker for their charms,
But these demons are no longer welcome here.

Hi guys! What do you think about our video? Please let us know!

"They're holding back my arms,
But they're telling me the fight is fair"

What if it's because we are strong enough to beat the demons even with our arms behind our backs? I just got chills.

Thanks for sharing and stay safe <3

You guys never cease to amaze me. This song literally saves my life in a way. I suffer from massive anxiety disorder and depression with constant suicide idealizations and one of the few things that gets me through is music. Thank you for being able to sing and say what I can't and allowing me to realize I am far from alone. You guys are amazing. MUSIC saves lives.

I only found you recently and I haven't been able to stop listening to your music. I thought "To Tell You the Truth" was my favorite song but this rendition of "Demons" is so beautiful.
