I’m drawn to it, too much I’d say

They tell me I was born this way

Yes, here, forever, I shall stay

The dark is all I need

 

No light to wake my sleepy eyes

The time of day which I despise

Incurious, it will not chastise

No, the dark, will not impede

 

Hides the truth from those who seek

While I, I turn the other cheek

No reason for all, of me, to critique

The dark knows how I bleed

 

Many times, how I cry out

I let emotions scream, and shout

You don’t know what this is about!

See, in the dark, my soul is freed.
