Embrace The Fear

Into the shadow of me is where I lie Always searching for the light I am the darkness that radiates Come hell or high water I find a way To stay hidden Far away I the shadow of what was never to be Part of the ground for you all to step on It's a race againist time to be 6 feet darker then ever before There's no shame in giving up When the fight seems to always be a losing war against me How things implode how they cascade down beyond all control When it seems the lowest point is everyday I've tried to flick the switch of change To a brighter forever But it all seems to fade Like a ship without a course I let it all coast into the coast of jagged moments As the shipwreck of lost goals spreads accross my ocean of disgrace The waves ever crashing but never eroding how I am feeling about this shadow of me It's almost surreal to be here now pitch black Surrounded by darkness and chaos But when this is all over and I wake to see Sometimes the darkness can show you a light Can make you see not everything that is light will end in darkness you just have to follow the shadows and embrace the fear.
