Insidious

I feel all black inside like coal

I wonder if you know?

An evil thrives inside my soul

the darkest place I know

I rage at everyone I see

Nocturnal fiends and all that be

just keep away from me

I search the shadows of my inner being

and see reflections of my twisted memories

The darker half of our nature

our misery

Is this the monster you call madness?

Insanity?

I feel all black inside like coal

I wonder if you know?

an evil nourished by my soul

the darkest place I know

so far from who we are

beneath our hidden scars

so far from where we once were

save me from this dark and twisted avatar

lead me back to where we were

It scrapes the corners of this waking dream

my own illusions leaving fissures in its seams

A pure distinction of hatred

and jealousy

Is this the one fallen angel

inside of me?

I feel all black inside like coal

how could you even know?
