at first i really dont give much favor to this song coz i like the song fear more but after a while, the line "i wont fear love" kept on playing inside me. after playing the song over and over did i finally accepted that yup- im ready for love.

to me, the demons in a way represented what i felt on the song "fear". the fear of not giving anything in return, the fear of unfamiliarity. after i "danced" with my demons did i understand what the song is all about.

i think that the playing with the demons is about the idea that, yes you now wont fear love but you would also entertain the demons in your head in the process. maybe it is in admitiing and accepting that there are demons (fears, insecurities, hangups, etc) inside you that you get to be in the road to love. i mean you just can't wake up one day saying "i dont fear love anymore." it is in accepting and dealing that there are demons in you that you would, well, fumble towards ecstasy.

just my opinion :)
