DEMONS
Dancing Through Demons: Embracing Imperfections and Finding Strength
Lyrics
Walked around my confessions
Reflecting on personal admissions and confessions.
I locked my heart away
Choosing to protect oneself emotionally by closing off the heart.
I talked about my depression
Discussing experiences with depression openly.
Now it's time to celebrate
Transitioning from a focus on struggles to a desire for celebration.
I'm not hollow I'm just empty and my armor is on
Feeling not entirely empty but acknowledging emotional detachment, wearing emotional armor.
This world is shallow gets me down carry on carry on
Expressing dissatisfaction with the superficial nature of the world but choosing to persevere.
Carry on carry on
Repeating the encouragement to carry on despite challenges.
I'm not sick I'm just tired of being myself
Rejecting the notion of being physically ill but expressing fatigue with one's own identity.
This isn't really goodbye just a pathetic cry for help
Stating that parting isn't final, but a call for assistance and understanding.
I know I'm broken and you can see it
Acknowledging personal brokenness that is visible to others.
You cut me open dance with my demons
Invoking imagery of vulnerability, with someone cutting open and engaging with inner struggles.
Dance with my demons
Repeatedly inviting others to join in facing and dealing with personal demons.
Dance with my demons
-I wanna meet my full potential
Expressing a desire to reach one's full potential.
Get out of my own way
Recognizing self-sabotage and the need to overcome internal obstacles.
Truth is I lack in confidence and
Acknowledging a lack of confidence and sensitivity to others' opinions.
Care too much what people say
Admitting to personal brokenness and wearing emotional armor for protection.
I can admit I been broken so my armor is on
Enduring a harsh world while persevering and carrying on.
This world is ruthless carry on carry on carry on
Repeating the encouragement to carry on despite the ruthlessness of the world.
Carry on carry on carry on carry on carry on carry on
-I'm not sick I'm just tired of being myself
Reiterating a lack of physical illness but expressing weariness with one's own identity.
This isn't really goodbye just a pathetic cry for help
Emphasizing that goodbyes are not final but a plea for assistance.
I know I'm broken and you can see it
Acknowledging personal brokenness visible to others.
You cut me open dance with my demons
Repeating the metaphor of dancing with personal demons, inviting others to join.
Dance with my demons
-Dance with my demons
-Close my eyes and count to ten I don't want to wake up again
Expressing a desire to escape reality temporarily by closing one's eyes.
'Cause the daylight illuminates your absence
Associating daylight with the painful awareness of someone's absence.
We used to sleep in the same bed now I am scared of where you been
Expressing fear and uncertainty about a partner's actions, leading to sleep disruptions.
Unstable and in a state of panic
Feeling emotionally unstable and panicky.
I'm not sick I'm just tired of being myself
Reiterating a lack of physical illness but expressing weariness with one's own identity.
This isn't really goodbye just a pathetic cry for help
Stating that goodbyes are not final but a plea for assistance.
I know I'm broken and you can see it
Acknowledging personal brokenness visible to others.
You cut me open dance with my demons
Repeating the metaphor of dancing with personal demons, inviting others to join.
Dance with my demons
-Dance with my demons
-Yo yo it's hell in my mind
Introducing a metaphorical depiction of inner turmoil as hell in the mind.
But everyone around telling me I'll be fine
Despite challenges, others offer reassurance that things will improve.
The evil in my head can just shut up and die
Rejecting negative thoughts and a determination to overcome them.
Saw my life walking in circles I must love wasting time
Reflecting on a sense of repetitive and unproductive behavior in life.
Take a drink when I shouldn't but my demons is thirsty
Indulging in destructive habits, possibly using substances to cope with inner struggles.
In a dance with the devil I do this shit 'till it hurts me
Engaging in self-destructive behavior, continuing despite the harm it causes.
Dangled on the edge is the root to my worry
Feeling on the edge of a crisis, with worry rooted in trying to understand life's complexities.
'Cause tryna crack the code its just a part of my journey
Embracing the challenge of deciphering life's
