The Darker One

Here I am, once again

All alone, without a friend.

The darkness calls from deep inside,

Offering me a place to hide.

The blood seeps through, crimson red

As I fall, the wounds begin to bleed

Cuts and bruises, black and blue

All because I'm here with you

Crying softly, the tears stain my face

But, to you, it's a horrible disgrace

Yelling and screaming, hitting me hard

I have no shield or body guard

Night falls, the sun dies down

And then you come, prowling around

Just to yell and make me bleed

All because of your selfish greed

And when the day comes,

The sun shines so bright

You leave once more,

Just to come again later, and make the blood pour

Why can't you just let me be

Leave me here, and set me free

I'd rather cry alone in the dark

Then have you here, breaking my heart

But you won't leave

You always come,

To break me down

And prove that I'm the darker one
