Alright, let's finalize the song for the Zon
[Intro]
(Sound of a single, slow heartbeat, fading out into a long, drawn-out breath as the beat begins.)
[Hook]
(Welcome to the darkness, my son. Finally, you embrace the better side.)
Welcome to the darkness, my son, my only friend
The loneliness that stayed with me right 'til the bitter end
Feared you, hated you, now I see the truth (see the truth)
This ain't a cage, it's a rebirth, a brand-new youth.
[Verse 1]
I used to chase the light, a fool in a bright disguise
Searching for a heart that was built on fragile lies (on fragile lies)
But every love I found, just a shadow in the rain
Left me with a hollow chest and a mountain of pain (so much pain).
I was scared to be alone, running from the quiet sound
But now I see the silence is the most honest ground.
My heart was an open door, a welcome mat for all
They came and took their piece, then watched me stand and fall.
[Hook]
(Welcome to the darkness, my son. Finally, you embrace the better side.)
Welcome to the darkness, my son, my only friend
The loneliness that stayed with me right 'til the bitter end
Feared you, hated you, now I see the truth (see the truth)
This ain't a cage, it's a rebirth, a brand-new youth.
[Verse 2]
It's time to be brave, it's time to be new, a total change (total change)
I'm jumping into darkness, rearranging the whole range.
No more kindness, no more love, no more soft and gentle soul
I asked the darkness, "Make me a monster, take full control."
My friends and family, they all abandoned me for selfish gains
Every single one of them betrayed me, leaving only stains (left me with stains).
But I took it all as a lesson, a painful, perfect guide
Taught me love isn't for me, nowhere left to run and hide.
Compassion's for the foolish, emotions for the weak (so weak)
So thank you all for keeping me in the dark, for making my spirit reek.
Now I own the darkness, it's a part of my new mind
The monster they created, leaving the past behind (past behind).
[Outro]
(The beat cuts out, leaving a moment of silence.)
(Spoken slowly, with a cold, clear voice)
And they all watched me become the monster they made.
