I've been surrounded by light
But I've been watching the light
Watching it slowly fade away
Soon I will be left in the darkness
Trapped within the thing I've so desperatly alluded
Slowly being destroyed by what I fear most
·
I understand why it wants me
A person like me can't stay in the light forever
But I can love that light until it is driven away
And I can fear that darkness until it consumes me
Until it eats me alive leaving no earthly remains
Taking away yet another hopeless soul that fell into its trap
·
The darkness is coming
Coming closer and closer with every waking moment
Anticipating its victory and my demise
Sadly, I accept my fate
My fate as its next victim
Praying my destruction will give other souls time to escape its unmercifully wrath
·
There is no fight to be fought
No battle to be won or lost
There is simply one who is victorious
And one who is defeated
It does not take a lot to be rid of the light
But it takes a miracle to be rid of the darkness
