Demons
Johnny Goth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
It makes me wanna buy a new car and drive it in the sea
But I know I won't come back to you and that'll be the end of me
It's destiny
That's the way it's always been
But now that I see clearly I know
I won't be here long
Unless I heal the demons inside me
They won't take my body
And that's the way it's gonna stay unless I heal the demons inside me
They won't take my body
And that's the way I wanna be
Thinkin' about nothin but the party
And drinkin' till I run out of luck
And that's the way it's gonna stay
Unless I heal the demons
The lyrics of Johnny Goth's song Demons speak to the singer's battle with insecurity and the inner demons that threaten to consume him. The first verse describes the weight of these insecurities falling down on him, causing him to feel an urge to escape and run away from his problems. However, he recognizes that escaping won't solve anything and will only lead to the end of him.
The chorus emphasizes the importance of facing these inner demons in order to move forward. He acknowledges that his current state of mind is unsustainable and that he won't be able to live a fulfilling life unless he confronts these demons head-on. The repetition of the line "They won't take my body" suggests that these demons are not just mental, but they also have a physical hold on him.
The second verse takes a more optimistic tone, as the singer expresses his desire to overcome these demons and live a carefree life full of partying and drinking. However, he recognizes that this is only possible if he first heals himself and confronts the root of his insecurities.
Overall, Johnny Goth's Demons is a powerful reflection on the importance of facing one's inner demons in order to live a fulfilling life free from anxiety and insecurity.
