Lyrics: Chantal
Darkness stares into my soul.
She sees I am not whole.
Afraid, I pretend I cannot see.
I try to deny the darkness in me.
But she reaches in despair.
Embrace compassion not fear.
Inviting her in didn’t feel like a sin.
In silence we sat for a while,
Then she spoke how people fear her smile.
With flawless perfection and elegant charm,
She began to reveal her truth without harm.
I bring hate so you can know love.
I bring fear so you know courage.
I bring despair so you can know hope.
I bring sorrow so you can know joy.
The opposing force in the universe you see…
Without me the beauty of this world would never be.
Darkness spoke unto my soul.
Without me you’re not whole.
I spoke to my friends fear and sorrow,
but they only live to take your tomorrows.
I am so alone,
I’ve even lost my shadow,
But I’ll be here today and I’ll be here tomorrow.
In silence we sat for a while,
Then she spoke how people fear her smile.
With flawless perfection and elegant charm,
She began to reveal her truth without harm.
I bring hate so you can know love.
I bring fear so you know courage.
I bring despair so you can know hope.
I bring sorrow so you can know joy.
The opposing force in the universe you see…
Without me the beauty of this world would never be.
Make friends with me. Make friends with me.
Make peace with me. Make peace with me.
Embrace me. Embrace me. Embrace me. Embrace me.
Embrace me and I’ll leave you be.
Darkness took my hand in hers.
A black rose breaks the curse.
I realized that darkness just like me,
exists for a reason we sometimes can’t see.
Darkness seldom visits anymore,
But I know she’s still there,
in every cold and icy stare.
In silence we sat for a while,
Then she spoke how people fear her smile.
With flawless perfection and elegant charm,
She began to reveal her truth without harm.
I bring hate so you can know love.
I bring fear so you know courage.
I bring despair so you can know hope.
I bring sorrow so you can know joy.
The opposing force in the universe you see…
Without me the beauty of this world would never be.
