Darkest Part

You dragged the depths of my soul

Until you found it

A darkened room locked away

I let you in

You looked inside then you turned away

My makeshift savior

He left me right here in my chains

But still I whisper

(I’m calling out)

Still I call you

I never wanted you to see

The darkest part of me

I knew you’d run away

I waited but you never came

So afraid to be alone

I tried to let you go

Still I find you lost inside the darkest part of me

It’s my descent, a familiar pain

Of watching all I believed fade away

Of traitors and fools

Of beggars and thieves

Which mask will you choose?

What is underneath?

I never wanted you to see

The darkest part of me

I knew you’d run away

I waited but you never came

So afraid to be alone

I tried to let you go

Still I find you lost inside the darkest part of me

Am I the black stain of your perfect life?

Am I the darkness that you need to hide?

It covers you

It spills over you

I never wanted you to see

The darkest part of me

I knew you’d run away

I waited but you never came

So afraid to be alone

I tried to let you go

Still I find you lost inside the darkest part of me
