FEED
Demi Lovato Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Walked through the valley, felt every high
I ran through fire, I did my time
I found my soul just to lose my mind
Met with the healers, prayed with the saints
All of the sinners know my name
There's scars I've caused and scars I've earnedStill don't know much but here's what I learned
My demons are on the hunt
But my angels taught me how to run
I got two wolves inside of me
But I decide which one to feed
Some days are diamonds, some days are rough
Some days I'm tired, some days I'm tough
I've built a bridge and burned it down
I found my wings just to lose my ground
One wolf howls while the other one sings
One wolf soothes while the other one stings
I hold on tight to things I've learned
But the wrong looks right when the tide has turned
My demons are on the hunt
But my angels taught me how to run
I got two wolves inside of me
But I decide which one to feed
One wolf howls while the other one sings
One wolf soothes, while the other one stings (yeah)
My demons are on the huntBut my angels taught me how to run
I got two wolves inside of me (yeah)
But I decide which one to feed (yeah)
I decide which one to feed
In Demi Lovato's song "Feed," she speaks about her inner struggles in a metaphorical sense. She describes her journey as she traveled through mountains, valleys, and fire while drinking wine and feeling highs. She also mentions the scars she has caused and earned, and how she met with healers and prayed with the saints. Demi states that she has two wolves inside of her, one that is soothing and the other that stings, and that she decides which one to feed. As the tide turned and she found herself losing her ground, she began to hold onto things she learned, even if they seemed wrong.
The metaphor of having two wolves inside of her refers to the concept of good and evil or light and dark within ourselves. Demi believes she has the power to choose which wolf to feed, indicating that she has control over her thoughts, behaviors, and actions. She acknowledges her demons, but her angels taught her how to run and fight them off. These lyrics show that Demi has been on a journey of self-discovery and growth, and while she has faced challenges and struggles, she has learned from them and persevered.
Overall, "Feed" is a song about resilience and taking ownership of one's choices. Demi sings about the importance of recognizing the different parts of ourselves and making a conscious effort to feed the positive side. The lyrics also touch on the idea that we are not defined by our past and that we have the power to control our present and future.
