They come alive when the lights go down
Whispers crawling through this haunted town
Every step I take, they're close behind
Crazy thoughts in my mind

I used to run, I used to hide
But now I face them eye to eye

I'm dancing with my demons
Spinning in the firelight
No more chains, no more bleeding
I own the fear tonight
They thought they'd break me
But I learned to lead them right
Dancing with my demons
Underneath the pale moonlight

I feel the cold but I don't fall
They laugh, but I still stand tall
Every scar's a song I know by heart
Every fall a brand-new start

The rhythm's dark, but it's my truth
And I won't bow to ghosts like you

I'm dancing with my demons
Spinning in the firelight
No more chains, no more bleeding
I own the fear tonight
They thought they'd break me
But I learned to lead them right
Dancing with my demons
Underneath the pale moonlight

Step by step, I claim my name
Through every ache, through every flame
You don't tame the storm, you learn its song
And you dance until the pain is gone

I'm dancing with my demons
Not running anymore
Twisting shadows into meaning
On this shattered, sacred floor
They used to haunt me
Now they're part of how I fight
Dancing with my demons
'Til I disappear in light
