I stand in the dark so you can't see the dark side of me
Dormant for the most part, but smiles when I bleed
Whispers in my ears and tries to be my influence

I used to not be like this
When I'm with you I hide away inside your soul
But don't forget to get it back
Because it'll fall with me in the endless hole

I try not to like this, but it's becoming who I am
It wants to engulf you, so don?t take my hand
Maybe I'm broken, or maybe I'm finally working
Was that the dark side of me that has just now spoken?

As the abyss takes over and I'm the Dim
I'm in so deep and I can't swim
I feel so dark and can't see my skin

Somehow you waited for me
Sorry to say, a shadow's what's left of who I used to be
If you didn't love me I don't think I would come to see
How it feels to have a reason to breathe

You did all you could, even made you cry
When I gave it a try, we left the rest up to me
My efforts were too late; I became an eclipse
I almost won, but couldn't quite get the last grip

It's time for everyone to meet the dark side of this spick
Now the light is hidden in the dark
The dark side and you could never coexist
And like the dark once did
The light?
Whispers in my ears hoping to be my influence
