"When the days are cold / And the cards all fold / And the saints we see / Are all made of gold." ![]() In this song, in which the band sounds like an Americanized Coldplay, the protagonist is waging that internal battle. We don’t always succeed in defeating them, but we try just the same. We all have some sort of demons inside us. ![]() Las Vegas rockers Imagine Dragons are doing the same, but in a different, guitar-driven way, with their song "Demons". The song is all about Kelly Clarkson once sang about everyone having a dark side. "Demons" spent twelve weeks on the Billboard Hot 100. Hope this helped, and Imagine Dragons, I hope you keep making awesome songs! And no, it is not "breed", it's "breathe". "No matter what we breathe, we are still made of greed" is exactly the definition of this song. So the best he can do is keep her, until she shows him if she does or does not love him. He finally realized that everyone is made of greed and that no matter what he does or what he tries, he just can't protect her. But near the end of the song, where he says "I can't escape this now, unless you show me how". And he believes the only way to "save" her is to let her go. But the truth is, he's trying to protect herself from not only him, but he's protecting her from everyone - including herself. He wants to keep her safe from himself, and from all greedy people. He wants to hide the truth from her to protect her. So, the song means that they are greedy - we all are - on the inside, and he wants to protect the one he loves from greed. They've realized all the greed of the world, and they want everyone to realize it. All ways remember that there is always someone to turn to that can help you through any situation that's when you find out who your true friends are. But if you watch the video you will understand there is meaning behind the song as it is in memory of a young man fighting cancer yet he still manages to put a smile on his face despite the disease that is trying to take him down. ![]() Afraid of rejection from others around us. As a survivor of abuse I can tell you that when your dealing with it you are afraid to tell any one out of fear that they will blame you instead of the abuser for why it is happening, there is a lot of people in this world that are cruel an don't seem to understand as they are not in your shoes so you keep it bottled up on the inside thus "demons" hiding it from the ones you love. Afraid that others may think different of us because of it. Whether it is abuse in the home, a lose, memories of the past that we survived yet ashamed to share with any one. This song is telling all of us that there is things in our past we are not proud of an also that we put on a smile even when we are struggling with something going on that know on knows.
