Ball of Darkness
Ball of darkness go away.
"No" he says, "I'm here to stay."
Ball of darkness I hate your guts.
"Why" he says, "do I drive you nuts?"
Cloudy sky you ruin my day.
"Good" he says, "and you can't run away."
Cloudy sky no one likes you.
"True" he says, "but I'm not you. I don't need anyone to."
Pain inside eats at my heart, do you aim for me to die?
"Yes" he says, "yes I do with each & every lie."
Pain inside do you try to make me feel this alive?
"Yes" he says, "because only those alive are able to die from the inside."
