At the end of 2016, Hayley celebrated the release of her major-label debut EP CITRINE, which included pop confections "Pretty Girl" and "Palace", by launching her nationwide "One Bad Night Tour". The completely sold-out headline tour saw Hayley performing her new music for her passionate and devoted fans in cities throughout the US. According to Baeble, Hayley "managed to turn a sold out Studio at Webster Hall into an intimate dance party for everyone to feel free in a safe zone."
Following singles including "Sleepover", "Feelings", and "Curious" have been released to accompany her debut studio album Expectations, which was released on March 30, 2018. The album reached the top 20 of the charts in United States, Canada and Australia. She has also created a comic book, with the help of Naomi Franquiz and Marla Vazquez, based on her song "Gravel to Tempo".
Kiyoko was a founding member of The Stunners in 2007. The group supported Justin Bieber's My World Tour, before disbanding in 2011.
Kiyoko was born to figure skater/choreographer Sarah Kawahara and actor/comedian Jamie Alcroft. Her mother is from Canada and her father is from Ohio, USA.
Demons
Hayley Kiyoko Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's something in the water
I don't like the flavor, I don't like the taste
Searching for nirvana
Something that'll take it all away from me
Don't bother me
It's holding me
Won't let me speak
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head (in my head)
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head
Tryna eat me, tryna feed me, lies until I'm dead ('til I'm dead)
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head
In my head
It's creeping and it's gonna get me, by the end of the night
I'm sinking deeper still, I'm reaching for the end of the light
Burning in the lava
You can't go and pray this type of pain away
Don't bother me
My misery
It's holding me
Won't let me speak
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head (in my head)
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head
Tryna eat me, tryna feed me, lies until I'm dead ('til I'm dead)
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head
I feel like I can't breathe
I feel like I can't sleep
How did I not see?
I'm unwell
I feel like I can't breathe
I feel like I can't sleep
How did I not see
I'm unwell
(Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head, in my head)
(Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head) (oh) (hey)
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head (in my head)
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head
Tryna eat me, tryna feed me lies until I'm dead (in my head)
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head
In my head
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head (in my head)
Please forgive me, I've got demons in my head
Hayley Kiyoko's song "Demons" is a haunting and honest depiction of inner turmoil and struggles with mental health. In the first verse, she alludes to her inner demons that are plaguing her mind, making it difficult for her to function. The next few lines paint a picture of her searching for a solution, something that will numb the pain and take it all away. However, she is still held captive by her misery, unable to speak up as her demons continue to consume her.
The chorus brings home the message that her demons are haunting her and feeding her lies, while she is trapped and unable to break free. The second verse highlights the depth of her struggles with the vivid descriptions of sinking into the darkness and not being able to go back. She tells the listener that the pain she's experiencing is not something that can be wiped away by prayer. As the song progresses, she repeatedly pleads for forgiveness, acknowledging the fact that her demons are consuming her, and she is trying her best to break free.
Overall, "Demons" is a deeply emotional song that speaks to the struggles that many people face in their daily lives. Through her music, Hayley Kiyoko brings light to the darkness and encourages listeners to find the strength to confront their inner demons.
