Demons
Embracing Shadows: A Battle with Inner Demons
Lyrics
I guess I’ll try to sleep tonight
I will attempt to sleep tonight
I don’t know what will be there
Uncertainty about what thoughts or fears may arise during sleep
Waiting in my mind
A sense of anticipation or fear in the mind
I guess I’ll try to close my eyes
Trying to close my eyes to sleep
I don’t know what will be there
Uncertainty about what will manifest on the other side of sleep
On the other side
The unknown aspects or challenges on the other side of sleep
But catch me if
A plea to be caught if falling into difficulty
If I fall
The possibility of facing challenges and needing support
And hold me through
A request for someone to be there and support through difficulties
Through it all
The need for support through all challenges
I’d better run they’re coming now
A realization that challenges are approaching and the decision to run
Baby don’t leave me here to drown
An appeal not to be abandoned in a difficult situation
All of my demons coming out
An acknowledgment of inner struggles or personal issues surfacing
I’d better run they’re coming now
The decision to escape or confront the emerging challenges
I guess I’ll try to block it out
An attempt to ignore or suppress troubling thoughts
I don’t know how to be there
Uncertainty about how to face a particular situation or emotion
I can’t make a sound
A feeling of being unable to express oneself or make a sound
I guess I’ll try to shut it down
An attempt to shut down or disconnect from distressing thoughts
But they pull me to the deep end
Feeling pulled towards a challenging or overwhelming situation
And they call so loud
An intense and compelling external or internal call
So don’t let me go
A plea to not be abandoned or let go in challenging times
I’d better run they’re coming now
Recognition of approaching challenges and the decision to run
Baby don’t leave me here to drown
An appeal to avoid abandonment in difficult circumstances
All of my demons coming out
Acknowledgment of personal struggles or inner demons resurfacing
I’d better run they’re coming now
The decision to run away from the emerging challenges
