Born in the Dark

In the silence I found my song,

Through the struggle, where I belong.

Lived a life of pain

While I rattle in chains

Off in my brains

I battle with sane

I’m a little bit iffy at best

Playing cards close to my chest

I keep one tucked close in my vest

Not afraid to pull it

I’ll make you one with the bullet

Listen,

I rose from the ashes, a flicker in the night,

Searching for stars in my world devoid of light.

I’ve carved out this heart, hardened by the fight,

Riding on the edge, chasing shadows through the fright.

Through the whispers that haunt me, I find my way,

In the mirror of madness, I’m learning to play.

Like a song that's unsung, still it calls out loud,

In the storm and the struggle, I rise with the crowd.

I was born in the dark,

A heart so cold,

Not a flame or a spark,

To light my path.

Had to make my own,

But the shadow has grown,

And little have I known

That I never walked alone.

Echoes of fights, echoes of fears,

I’ve danced with my demons for years and years.

Behind every veil, I wear my disguise,

But there’s fire inside, igniting these skies.

That voice in the dark, it calls me near,

Through the valleys of doubt, I whisper my cheer.

Stitching up hope where the hopeoid of light.

I’ve carved out this heart, hardened by the fight,

Riding on the edge, chasing shadows through the fright.

Through the whispers that haunt me, I find my way,

In the mirror of madness, I’m learning to play.

Like a song that's unsung, still it calls out loud,

In the storm and the struggle, I rise with the crowd.

I was born in the dark,

A heart so cold,

Not a flame or a spark,

To light my path.

Had to make my own,

But the shadow has grown,

And little have I known

That I never walked alone.

Echoes of fights, echoes of fears,

I’ve danced with my demons for years and years.

Behind every veil, I wear my disguise,

But there’s fire inside, igniting these skies.

That voice in the dark, it calls me near,

Through the valleys of doubt, I whisper my cheer.

Stitching up hope where the hopeless collide,

In the arms of the pain, I’ll no longer hide.

Through the whispers that haunt me, I find my way,

In the mirror of madness, I’m learning to play.

Like a song that’s unsung, still it calls out loud,

In the storm and the struggle, I rise with the crowd.

I was born in the dark,

A heart so cold,

Not a flame or a spark,

To light my path.

Had to make my own,

But the shadow has grown,

And little have I known

That I never walked alone.

So here’s to the battle, the weight of the scars,

To the light that I ignite, like the blazing stars.

I’ll carry my light through the shadows that roam,

For in the heart of the dark, I’ve found my way home.

I was born in the dark,

Yet here I stand tall,

With the shadows behind me,

I’ll conquer it all.
