If I Lost My Demons

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 3 months ago 2 min read

Verse 1

In the shadows where I fight,

Binding chains in the dead of night,

Wrestling fears, they make me strong,

They teach me where my heart belongs.

Pre-Chorus

Every scar tells a story true,

Every tear builds the strength in you,

The storms I face, they guide my way,

Without the night, I’d lose the day.

Chorus

If I lost my demons, I'd lose my angels too,

The battles I've fought bring me close to you.

In the depths of sorrow, I find my light,

Every shadow whispers, “Hold on tight.”

If I lost my demons, I’d lose my angels too,

In the dance of darkness, I find the truth.

Verse 2

Haunted echoes of the past,

Carry lessons meant to last,

Every struggle, every fight,

Turns my darkness into light.

Pre-Chorus

The pain I face, it clears my view,

In my heart, there’s a fire anew,

With every trial, I learn to stand,

Finding grace in every hand.

Chorus

If I lost my demons, I'd lose my angels too,

The battles I've fought bring me close to you.

In the depths of sorrow, I find my light,

Every shadow whispers, “Hold on tight.”

If I lost my demons, I’d lose my angels too,

In the dance of darkness, I find the truth.

Bridge

So I’ll embrace all the fears,

Let them wash away my tears,

For in the struggle, I can see,

The strength within sets my spirit free.

Chorus

If I lost my demons, I'd lose my angels too,

The battles I've fought bring me close to you.

In the depths of sorrow, I find my light,

Every shadow whispers, “Hold on tight.”

If I lost my demons, I’d lose my angels too,

In the dance of darkness, I find the truth.

Outro

So I’ll carry both through the night,

With demons and angels, I’ll be alright.

Together they shape the story I weave,

In the balance of chaos, I choose to believe.
