Demons
PelleK Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When the days are cold
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see
Are all made of gold

When your dreams all fail
And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all
And the blood's run stale

I wanna hide the truth
I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside
There's nowhere we can hide

No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide

At the curtain's call
It's the last of all
When the lights fade out
All the sinners crawl

So they dug your grave
And the masquerade
Will come calling out
At the mess you made

Don't wanna let you down
But I am hell bound
Though this is all for you
Don't wanna hide the truth

No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide

They say it's what you make
I say it's up to fate
It's woven in my soul
I need to let you go

Your eyes, they shine so bright
I wanna save that light
I can't escape this now
Unless you show me how

When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside




It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to PelleK's song Demons describe a complex and dark state of being in which the singer is grappling with their own inner demons. The lyrics begin by describing a world that has fallen apart, where dreams have failed and the only "saints" are ones made of gold, suggesting a superficial sense of morality. The singer then reveals their desire to protect someone they care about, but they know that the "beast inside" them cannot be hidden or tamed. Despite their efforts to shelter others from their demons, the singer acknowledges that they are driven by greed and that their world is their own personal kingdom.


As the song progresses, the singer admits that they are "hell-bound" and that they are unable to escape their own inner turmoil. They plead for someone to save them but realize that they cannot be saved unless they are shown how to escape their own personal hell. The song ends with the singer asserting that their demons cannot be escaped and that they are a part of them.


Overall, PelleK's Demons is a powerful and introspective exploration of the struggle with one's inner demons and the realization that they cannot be entirely escaped.


Line by Line Meaning

When the days are cold
On the days when you feel depressed


And the cards all fold
And everything seems to be going wrong


And the saints we see
And the people we look up to


Are all made of gold
Are not as perfect as they seem


When your dreams all fail
When your aspirations shatter into pieces


And the ones we hail
And the people we admire


Are the worst of all
Turn out to be the most disappointing ones


And the blood's run stale
And nothing seems to change for the better


I wanna hide the truth
I want to keep things from you


I wanna shelter you
I want to protect you


But with the beast inside
But with the darkness within me


There's nowhere we can hide
There's nowhere to escape


No matter what we breed
No matter who we are or what we do


We still are made of greed
We still crave more and more


This is my kingdom come
This is where I reign supreme


When you feel my heat
When you're near me


Look into my eyes
See what's inside of me


It's where my demons hide
My dark thoughts and emotions


Don't get too close
Don't get too involved


It's dark inside
It's not a pleasant place


At the curtain's call
At the final moment


It's the last of all
It's the end of everything


When the lights fade out
When life comes to an end


All the sinners crawl
Everyone repents for their wrongdoings


So they dug your grave
Referring to death and funeral preparations


And the masquerade
And the facades people put on


Will come calling out
Will be revealed


At the mess you made
At the consequences of your actions


Don't wanna let you down
I don't want to disappoint you


But I am hell bound
But I am destined for darkness


Though this is all for you
Although I do this for you


Don't wanna hide the truth
I don't want to keep things from you


They say it's what you make
People say it's all up to you


I say it's up to fate
I believe some things are out of our control


It's woven in my soul
It's a part of who I am


I need to let you go
I need to move on from this


Your eyes, they shine so bright
You're full of life and hope


I wanna save that light
I want to preserve your spirit


I can't escape this now
I can't avoid this reality


Unless you show me how
Unless you guide me through this
