Demons
k. l. murder Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Try to keep from going under
It's getting hard to breathe
To keep my head above the water
And I can hardly see
What's the point of waking up in the morning
Trying to keep my world turning
If I'm unwell
I don't give a damn if what I do is hurting
Me I just want to feel something new
That old familiar tune
That demon in my room
Came crawling back to me last
I couldn't curb my appetite
Cause I'm unwell
I'm unwell
I don't give a damn if what I do is hurting
Me I just want to feel something new
Help me help me help
Help me help me help
Help me help me help
Help me help me help
Help me help me help
Help me help me help me
Help me help me help me
Help me help me help me
Help me help me help
The lyrics to K.L. Murder's song "Demons" speak to the struggles of mental illness and addiction. The singer expresses a feeling of suffocation, as if they are struggling to keep their head above water. They feel lost and aimless, unable to see the point of waking up in the morning. Yet, despite their struggles, they find themselves turning to destructive behaviors to numb their pain. They don't care if their actions are hurting themselves, they just want to feel something new.
The lines "That old familiar tune / That demon in my room / Came crawling back to me last" evoke the idea of addiction as a constant presence, a reminder of the singer's demons that they can't seem to shake. They struggle to control their urge to indulge in their addiction, admitting that they "couldn't curb my appetite." The repeated plea for help at the end of the song suggests that the singer is aware of their need for assistance, but doesn't know how to reach out.
Overall, the song speaks to the powerful hold that addiction and mental illness can have on a person. It communicates the feeling of being trapped and unable to escape one's own demons, even if one recognizes their destructive nature.
