There is hum with a never ending pulse
slamming the walls of consciousness
constantly reverberating the mind
and it doesn't seem to go away in time
It feeds through the bloodstream
turning every vessel black with intention
poisoning from within with no cure in sight
and this time the bark is not bigger than the bite
Deep, deep, deep, deep
are the echoes spreading chaos
seeking destruction with impending rage
There is no stopping it now
There seems to be no balance
no common variable to tip the scales
with each heartbeat doom comes
breaching slowly but surely around the corner
Sweat drips down your spirit as though tangible
Keen to feeling but the touch is yet faint
your breathing shallow with anticipation
What will be the deciding factor in this battle
Will you live in fear and be taken whole
shake off this disease and fight
choose to stand or fall forever
These are your choices while in darkness
So warrior what will it be
you now have a friend willing to fight
stand with you and push your darkness back
and all you have to do is give yourself a chance
