Into the Dark

There is a darkness In my soul A darkness That can't be tamed A deep void of emptiness A gaping wound A vile, corrupted entity That has no name From the dark Into the light I make this journey On my own From the dark Into the light I must fight this darkness All alone I try to do What is right And still my twisted mind Is full of spite Each day a struggle With this side of me A losing battle I can't break free No! I can't break free Out of the dark My demons arise Dragging me back Into despair Into the dark, into the dark Every time I think I am free They drag me back down Down through the void Into the dark, into the dark Dagas my guide But Thurisas bides Drags me back down Into despair Into the dark, into the dark From the dark Into the light I make this journey On my own From the dark Into the light I fight these demons alone No! I can't break free Oh no! This darkness is me I fight these demons These agents of fear I'm battered and beaten My scars invisibly clear So here I stand Naked and true I am who I am I am Loke to you From the dark depths Of my mind They crawl towards the light My demons are a part Of who I am I embrace the dark depths Of my mind That invades my heart 'Cause without darkness Who am I? --- Into the Dark - Amon Amarth
