about
The release of Demons as a double A-side single with Seeing Stars in September 2016, marked a new phase in Empathy Test's evolution. The live band was joined by Christina "Chrisy" Lopez on drums and Jacob Ferguson-Lobo on keyboards and went on their first international tour with Mesh and Aesthetic Perfection. It became one of the band's most popular songs and a live favourite. It was remastered as part of the Losing Touch (Remastered) album in 2017.
lyrics
All of my dreams have flown away
All of my ambition with the wind
Now you’re here.
I never thought I would be satisfied
With anything I had
Now I’m not so sure.
I waited so long for you
Now you’re here I don’t know what to do
With you.
I went hunting for love
When I thought I’d lose.
I meant to shoot down a dove
Shot an angel instead.
And now she wakes up every day and she invites
All of my demons to play.
Fade in fade out like a musical
Rhythm and rhyme in time
Our heart beats sing
Just to remind you we’re still alive in here.
I waited so long for you
Now you’re here I don’t know what to do
With you.
I went hunting for love
When I thought I’d lose.
I meant to shoot down a dove
Shot an angel instead.
And now she wakes up every day and she invites
All of my demons to play.
Well I love her, I hate her
I abhor her, I adore her
Just the same, just the same
Just the same, just the same.
Well I love her, I hate her
I abhor her, I adore her
Just the same, just the same
Just the same, just the same.
All of my ambition with the wind
Now you’re here.
I never thought I would be satisfied
With anything I had
Now I’m not so sure.
I waited so long for you
Now you’re here I don’t know what to do
With you.
I went hunting for love
When I thought I’d lose.
I meant to shoot down a dove
Shot an angel instead.
And now she wakes up every day and she invites
All of my demons to play.
Fade in fade out like a musical
Rhythm and rhyme in time
Our heart beats sing
Just to remind you we’re still alive in here.
I waited so long for you
Now you’re here I don’t know what to do
With you.
I went hunting for love
When I thought I’d lose.
I meant to shoot down a dove
Shot an angel instead.
And now she wakes up every day and she invites
All of my demons to play.
Well I love her, I hate her
I abhor her, I adore her
Just the same, just the same
Just the same, just the same.
Well I love her, I hate her
I abhor her, I adore her
Just the same, just the same
Just the same, just the same.

It Will Come To You LP
by ACTORSsupported by 79 fans who also own “Demons”
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.
