The darkness rages
The darkness has hatred
It suffocates and kills
It burns and mills
Preying on the weak and rejected
Devouring the meek and neglected
Never stopping to consider
That if none of this existed; we would all be bitter
From those who scathed and those who tore
Away at our pride and were able to sleep and snore
Safe away from this land
Where life drains and hope’s hand is not there for anyone
Never interfering; never helping
Never deciding always betraying and yelping
Darkness tears and darkness rages
Darkness has hatred and rage
Lying in wait
To prey on us like bait…
