Darkness runs deep
It seeps into every crevasse
Waiting to take over
Waiting to take control
Waiting for the time
Waiting for you to lose control

Darkness runs deep
We all should know
It controls us
Sometimes we don’t know
It wants to be seen
When it knows we have no control

Darkness runs deep
It embeds into your veins
And like a leech
Sucks the life out of you
And before you realize it
It will begin again

Darkness runs deep
It is like a virus
It infects you
Your morals are now gone
Your friends are now gone
Your family is now gone

Now that everything is gone
You begin to go back to darkness
You are not who you were
Who you were before
Who you were before
Is long gone

Every time you are tempted
Tempted by darkness
And you accept
The darkness grows stronger
And It forms a new reality for you
A “better” reality

If you ever return to reality
You see what the darkness has done
It has made your life worse
You now in a deep hole
You need a way out
And the darkness is there to offer it

If you accept the darkness
It will eventually consume you
With every puff
With every sip
With every injection
With everything it can

When the darkness takes over
You are left alone
When the darkness takes over
You are defenceless
You can fight it
But darkness runs deep
