Lyrics:

DEMONS RUN FASTER THAN RAINBOWS

[Verse 1]
Don't get inside my head it's a damn dark scary place
My soul runs on half empty, it's not a sunny safe space
Rainbows and angels quit visiting my shoulder long ago
I'm sure they place bets, that I'll end up down below.

[Chorus]
Demons run faster than rainbows
The race is close, often nose to nose
Depression and demons, punch low blows
Demons run faster than rainbows
Demons run faster than rainbows

[Verse 2]
My heart shines of darkness, illuminating my senseless life
Friends abandon me, just ask my ex-wife
Demons chase my soul, life's a tormented living death
Angels don't hear my cry, cause they're stone-deaf

[Chorus]
Demons run faster than rainbows
The race is close, often nose to nose
Depression and demons, punch low blows
Demons run faster than rainbows
Demons run faster than rainbows

[Bridge]
I hope my heart and soul is not completely lost
I'm not ready to have my dreams of heaven tossed
I'll breath a new life, soothe my wounded soul
I hope I'm not double crossed.

[Chorus]
Demons run faster than rainbows
The race is close, often nose to nose
Depression and demons, punch low blows
Demons run faster than rainbows
Demons run faster than rainbows

Comments by composer(s):

Written in 2026 this song is darker than I usually write, but I believe the topic of depression is a worthy one. The lyrics and melody are 100% written by me. I created a song demo and used enhanced production tools for the vocals, instrumentation and production. Thanks for listening.
