I’m the darkness

Thinking back to my younger years

There was nothing inside me but fear

I was the black to your white

I was the wrong to your right

I was the war inside this fight

I’d sit alone in my bedroom

The darkness wouldn’t creep it loomed

Hung over me like a cloud

I yelled and cried out loud

didn’t make my parents proud

from the darkness, it would rise

That cloud that drained my life

I tried to run and hide

But it always creeped inside

Can’t you see?

I was never free

I’m the darkness in the air

Never said my life would be fair

I’m the darkness

I’m the darkness

I’m the darkness

If you cared

Torn and teared as a teen

Hunted and haunted as I seemed

I tried to keep a light

I always put up a fight

I didn’t give in at night

From the darkness, it would rise

That cloud that drained my life

I tried to run and hide

It saw through my disguise

Can’t you see?

I was never free

I’m the darkness in the air

Never said my life would be fair

I’m the darkness

I’m the darkness

I’m the darkness

I was scared

Thought you’d like to know

My heart was never whole

Ghost would haunt me at night

They’re still present in my life

But under this darkened soul

There’s still a bit of me that still glows

Now that I’m grown

I wish my heart was stone

The things that I share

Are you listening while you stare?

Are you still alive in there?

From the darkness, it would rise

That cloud that drained my life

I tried to run and hide

But it always creeped inside

Can’t you see?

I was never free

I’m the darkness in the air

Never said my life would be fair

I’m the darkness

I’m the darkness

I’m the darkness

If you care

From the darkness, it would rise

That cloud that drained my life

I tried to run and hide

It saw through my disguise

Can’t you see?

I was never free

I’m the darkness in the air

Never said my life would be fair

I’m the darkness

I’m the darkness

I’m the darkness

I was scared

I’m the darkness I’m the darkness. I am the darkness in the air.
