i live in the shadows
covered by a coat of darkness
writing nothing but sad prose
living in a constant catharsisi am the monster under your bed
that grabs onto you in the night
watching as you pled
to go with more than just your lifei am a creature of the dark
drowning the world right with me
eliminating any chance of a spark
if i go down you go down with me
