The darkness, it's too much
I feel it in my veins
I feel it in my mind
I feel it in my heart
I can't see what's ahead anymore
The poison of greed
Of ambition
Of success
I grew addicted to.
A distorted reality
A realm of lies
A world of shadows
I pray for redemption
But there's no god in this night.
I used to fight for the light
But the shields of justice were dulled
By the blades of darkness
The voice of goodness
Silenced by the whispers of lies
Innocent hands
Marred by temptation
Eyes blinded
By the illusion of longing.
I can't help it anymore
It's too sweet, the taste of evil,
The taste of darkness,
The endless night.
Inspired by:
Too bad/But it's too sweet/.../It's too evil
