Why won't that darkness leave me alone?
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I don't even bother to catch my breath
For the fear of my own heart's death
It's still at my heels
I can't out maneuver that terror anymore
So I hide, try to forget about those demons
Thinking they'll think I'm invisible too
But it's still there staring right in my eyes
Paralyzed I hypothesize a way out
To run away to a happier place
A place where there's no black void,
No hate,
But Im trapped
It's a jumble,
And I'm left in a haze and dizzy
This monster always catches me
It suffocates
It leaves my heart barely beating
Running gets me lost
Hiding gets me found
Round and round and round and round
The beast is there over my shoulder
It stalks me in sunlight
But no one will see
In the night it disappears
Then haunts my dreams
I'm left shattered
Hating every day
Cause there's an ominous gloom
That consumes me and leaves me to go insane
This beast is evil
It kills
It's the thorn in a rose
I hate you! I scream
As I see it looking back at me in the mirror
Invisible
A disease
They don't see it
The darkness
It never leaves
It's my shadow
In the back of my mind
Leaving me as broken as it wants me to be.
