Everything's Not Lost by Coldplay

If you ever feel neglected,

If you ever think all is lost,

I'll be counting up my demons, yeah,

Hoping everything's not lost,

Everything's not lost,

When I'm counting up my demons.



There's always one for everyday,

With the good ones on my shoulder,

I drove the other ones away.



If you ever feel neglected,

If you think all is lost,

I'll be counting up my demons, yeah,

Hoping everything's not lost.



When you thought it was over,

You could feel it all around,

Everybody's out to get you,

Don't you let it drag you down.



Cos if you ever feel neglected,

If you think that all is lost,

I'll be counting all the demons, yeah.


I'm wondering what the good demons are? Is it like counting your blessings in reverse and being glad for the tricky things in your life- the things that build character? I don't know but I'm finding this song useful at the minute...
