“Demons” is the first single of Jacob’s debut album Philosophy and label, Philosophical Records.
This song is about having your heart broken by your true love. You used this person as a sanctuary that you could turn to for reassurance that life is worth living. But as you opened up to this person a...
[Verse 1]
My heart is weak
Tear it down piece by piece
Leave me to think
Deep in my structure, I think I still love her
But I need some sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
You've taken my breath away
Now I want to breathe
'Cause I cannot see, what you can see
So easily
[Chorus]
I thought my demons were almost defeated
But you took their side and you pulled them to freedom
I kept your secrets and I thought that you would do the same
[Verse 2]
Leave me in peace
Caught in my memories
Lost underneath
Deep in my structure, I feel a rupture
From where she should be
[Pre-Chorus]
You've taken my breath from me
Now I want to breathe
'Cause I cannot see, what you can see
So easily
[Chorus]
I thought my demons were almost defeated
But you took their side and you pulled them to freedom
They know my secrets and won't let me go, won't let me go
I thought my demons were almost defeated
But you took their side and you pulled them to freedom
I kept your secrets and I thought that you would do the same
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
I thought my demons were almost defeated
But you took their side and you pulled them to freedom
They know my secrets and won't let me go, won't let me go
I thought my demons were almost defeated
But you took their side and you pulled them to freedom
I kept your secrets and I thought that you would do the same

“Demons” was the debut release for my label Philosophical Records and was written in about 45 minutes. It’s a notably darker piece than most of my previous releases, and touches on the harrowing reality of betrayal. I wrote this one in my garage, as isolated as possible, loop station by my feet, aco...

‘Demons’ just came out one day… It was a concept written from the perceptive of someone else, I was actually in a great headspace!
