Dear darkness, we meet again old friend
The bond we once shared is stronger now
I missed the comforting chaos you send
You told me what to do, showed me how
The shadow of you upon my furrowed brow
But now you are back, you came back to me
Speaking in a whisper, using borrowed voices
Those words say it is time to create my legacy
Do it now or wait a while are my only choices
But are your words real or made up noises?
But if you are not the darkness I once knew
The friend that kept my feet on the ground
So are you still my friend or something new?
And what is that strange slobbering sound?
Can I still trust you or am I a toy newly found?
There is a strange light gleaming in your eye
A tense energy, I can feel it's waves flow
Why did you come back? Tell me why?
Standing there with your sickening glow
Will I be able to withstand your final blow?
