As Darkness Falls

Darkness falls when no one has faith.

The death of loved ones,

A broken promise to another.

We will all lose faith,

And when we do it is…forever.

The light in our hearts,

The light in our eyes,

It shall all disappear.

Forever as the darkness falls.

One by one we are consumed,

For there is no escape.

There is never escape.

Eventually we are all consumed.

Believe in fake religion.

Believe in a lonesome hell we live in.

See true to the world we live in,

The darkness already consumed by many and all.

All in all the only true thing we can count on,

Is the darkness within.

The light shall fade when the darkness falls.

Consuming us all in its dark embrace.

Eating our souls till all that’s left is hell.

Our own little hell in our own little minds.

Our weak, simple, competitive minds,

We give in so easy to the darkness.

For only the true and pure of heart can live in light.

But impossible on so many levels.

For we are all weak.

And when we drop our guard.

The darkness will fall.
