The Darkness

When the devil comes to get his due And he adds up what's been done Will you help me face the darkness yet to come? When the sickness starts seeping through And it beats me like a drum Will you help me face the darkness yet to come? Wheels come off and targets get shot And the best get played a fool Pigs will gather 'round a trough But the feast is always cruel Will you help me when the light stops shining through? Will you help me face the darkness when I do? When greasy fingerprints of shame Are all that's left to claim And they finally learn what we've done here And I'm left to take the blame Will you help me or will you walk away? Will you help me face the darkness of the day? When the lies have left me numb And I'm ready to succumb Will you help me face the darkness yet to come? Will you help me face the darkness yet to come?
