Dark Side
There is a dark side living in all of us;
turning all love and joy into disgust.
We are all haunted underneath.
The devils in our souls ripping us apart, piece by piece.
Trying to escape its trap,
trying to unveil its wrath.
It laughs at all your pain,
and causes your eyes to rain.
One day you snap, and he breaks loose
unraveling everything you hide within, unveiling the truth.
You just need to be strong,
push away all fear and move along.
You can get through it, believe me you will.
Once you do, you'll feel the thrill.
Don't be like me, all I did was run.
I ran away, and for that I should be shunned.
But I'm still standing, and so are you.
You're stronger than me, you stayed and pulled through.
You defeated the demon all alone,
and your bright lights are widely known.
Save me now, not from my dark side,
but from myself, and stay by my side.
