I AM THE DARK

I AM THE DARK

I am the dark that kills the day

I am a fear that won't go away

I am black crows that caw at the sun

I am the evil in everyone

I am the blade that first drew blood

I am your body that bleeds in the mud

I am the moon that shines on the place

Where women and men first saw my face

I am grit in the loop of Time

Where first was whispered that murderous lie

I am predator I prey on you

I am the ignorance which you choose

I am that which takes away

I am that which holds you in sway

I am the dictator who makes you cower

I am the terror that lives in your hours

I am the war fought in someone's name

I am the tax which you have to pay

I am coward I am shame

I am corruption and shame

I am ruler but not rule

I am the nature of all that is cruel
