rage and recovery

hello, my old friend

without me, i am nothing

with me, i have nothing

give and give and give

you get dust on the counter tops

take and take and take

you get fingertips gripping porcelain

shh, we mustn't wake the children

quiet, they mustn't meet the darkness

but they hear, they always hear

at the cracks of doors,

in the shadows of the midnight gloom

hello darkness, i've been waiting for you

mother tells me not to speak to strangers

but you and i know each other well

darkness, my love, tell me i am nothing

darkness, my friend, tell me i am a part of you

darkness, my dear, tell me it all disappears
