It hides in the shadows
Watching me and waiting
For a chance to strike
To bring sorrow and strife
Into...
My life
It stalks me
I am its prey
It eats away
At my light
With this hanging around
All the time
How could I ever
Shine bright?
It makes me angry
It makes me sad
Sometimes it causes me
To make people around me feel bad
I don't want to be this way
I don't want to feel this way
But it hangs over me
Stays with me
Like an unloving melody
It only brings gloom
Don't want it to spread
Stay locked in a room
Want it to go away
But can't speak up
Keep it to myself
Keep it at bay
It doesn't live
It does not breathe
So how can it have
Such an effect on me?
It's an evil thing
That only brings
Suffering
I live with it
Day by day
Try to make the blackness fade
It's not so easy
But it's the only way
To keep it from haunting me
This wickedness' name
It starts with a 'd'
