I Have a Darkness

In the quiet of the night, my thoughts run deep, memories haunt me while the darkness creeps The weight of the world presses down on me, my solemn struggle, I want so much to be free I have a darkness that shadows my mind, in the corners of my brain there's no peace to find I have a darkness, it won't let me be, in this battle within, will I ever be free My face in the mirror, a stranger stands back, echoing the whispers rising up from the black Taunting me to be normal, the same every night I have a darkness that shadows my mind, in the corners of my brain there's no peace to find I have a darkness, it won't let me be, in this battle within, will I ever be free My face in the mirror, a stranger stands back, echoing the whispers rising up from the black Taunting me to be normal, the same every night I have a darkness that shadows my mind, in the corners of my brain there's no peace to find I have a darkness, it won't let me be, in this battle within, will I ever be free The days turn to nights, and the nights to days, in a labyrinth of thoughts, I'm lost in a maze I cling to hope, like some far distant star, in the darkness between, we find out who we are I have a darkness that shadows my mind, in the corners of my brain there's no peace to find I have a darkness, it won't let me be, in this battle within, will I ever be free You are never alone in these unseen wars, an army of minds out behind closed doors Within the darkness, what's the point of the light? It's the constant struggles that win you the fight
