Our Shared Demons

CC always appreciated!
Not my fave track I've made but oh well, had to make this one in about a day - since all of my previous attempts kept hitting walls on everything from subject matter, to melody, to chords...
Backstory - My biological dad had some demons he fought which resulted in his death when I was 8 month old. As someone who shares many of those same demons I feel strangely connected to him through them at times.

I only know you
through our shared demons
out shared demons
connect
us
You left me alone to see
just how alike we are
never wanted to follow you
got close but no cigar
All I know is you
were not in control
of your own mind
what I know is I sympathize
I know what that's like
You gave me all your demons
gone forever and I know your reasons
our hard times bind us together
we're entwined for worse and for better
All I know is you
were not in control
of your own mind
what I know is I sympathize
I know what that's like
I forgive you
it took so long
to reach that point
in my heart
I forgive you
even though
your demons
almost tore
me apart
All I know is you
were not in control
of your own mind
what I know is I sympathize
I know what that's like
Fun Fact: 5 weeks in a row is now my personal best weekly beats streak! (I took many, multi-week, breaks in 2024)
