When I counted up my demons
Saw there was one for every day
With the good ones on my shoulder
I drove the other ones away
So if you ever feel neglected
If you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost
When you thought that it was over
You could feel it all around
And everybody's out to get you
Don't you let it drag you down
'Cause if you ever feel neglected
If you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost
If you ever feel neglected
If you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost
Singing out, oh-oh-oh, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
Everything's not lost
So come on, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
Everything's not lost
Oh-oh, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
And everything's not lost
Come on, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
Come on, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
Everything's not lost
Sing out, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
And everything's not lost
Come on, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
Sing out, yeah
And everything's not lost
Now I never meant to do you wrong
That's what I came here to say
But if I was wrong, then I'm sorry
I don't let it stand in our way
'Cause my head just aches when I think of
The things that I shouldn't have done
But life is for living, we all know
And I don't want to leave it alone
Sing, ah-ah-ah
Sing, ah-ah-ah
And just sing, ah-ah-ah
