Darkness

I never knew how much you meant to me

You were the ground I stood on

But o, I've battled for ages

Fought what I thought you were

Suddenly it's clear what I've wasted

I've shut you out and shut you off

But o, I've ripped out the pages

Cut where I thought it would hurt

The darkness and the light

The morning and the night

I built up an altar to stop you

Stone upon stone in the sand

Laid you down like you were a killer

I stretched out a murderous hand

My darkness and my light

The morning and the night
