The Enemy of War
The darkness beset inside
As if it was at home
Though the hell I couldn't hide
I tried to play along
Adorned as a black jewel
Decorating to never leave
The fight seemed futile
A battle inside of me
The war I left in the sands
Dusted off the grains
Too weak to stand
Lightning strikes in the brain
I crawled with all my strength
Making my way back
It kept creeping in like a fiend
At every chance it would attack
