You choose to hide in the shadows of your shattered mind
Bringing forth the blackness with all its tempting fears
You look in the dark and nothing is there
Maybe it's the demon that will haunt your soul
Let yourself get lost in the powers of that fright
You'll find the bottom of your blackened heart
You want to walk the other side of life
Let others taste the tears you've cried
The need in you will not subside
So to the dark you run and hide
This is what keeps you sane
You welcome all the pain
You take the darkness
As your only source of light
You accepted the darkness
As the one you kiss goodnight
You know the darkness
As only the devil could
You touch the darkness
And it makes you feel so good
Dark thoughts hold a power
Into the darkness, you wander in your broken mind
As long there's darkness. You'll survive!
Through the eyes of sadness. You'll get by!
Push yourself in the shadows
In the darkness forever bound
You'll lurk at the same place
Never to be found
The need in you will not subside
So to the dark you run and hide
This is what keeps you sane
You welcome all the pain
Your soul is dark!
