The Dark Side
The Dark Side
I cannot keep my mind out of the darkness
My eyes keep slipping into the black abyss
My soul is torn, not knowing which way to go
It’s so confusing, my body is going to blow
I try to stay away from negative vibes
But they feel so right, drift away from the light
I truly believe in and have love for god
He’s always been there for me, no doubt
But I feel the calling from down below
The evil thoughts in my mind continue to grow
I’d never think of hurting another person
If it happened to me, there’d be nothing worse than
But there’s something there I can’t describe
A darkness in my soul which I cannot be rid
So far I’ve been staying on top of the game
But I’m self destructive, myself I will maim
For right now I’m doing pretty well
Unfortunately, my past will likely land me in hell
If I stay on the right path
I should be ok, you do the math
