Dark Hearts
Evil larks in the dark hearts of men
Impure, tainted love
Makes it hard to love again
Anger in their eyes,
Places fear in my soul
A feeling I’ve come to know all too well
That can put a chill through my bones
Full of disappointments
And cries of fear
Puts burning fire below all who come near
He stalks the shadows
Throughout the night
He’s hurt me once
He’s hurt me twice
And once more,
Before the dawning of the light.
