Yes, it is dark My Child

The shadows of despair 

Shaded by the clouds of the lost 


I can’t go on 

I am tangled in my shadows 

And the darkness is to dark 


But My Child…

Why give in to your demons 

When you can fight them 


Fight them?


Yes My Child, fight 

You have the most powerful weapon inside you


A weapon, in me?


Yes My Child 

The fire in your heart

The fire that lights your spirit 

The fire that lights your way

The fire that burns your shadows


Listen My Child 

Keep that fire lit 

Because the fire in your heart will always save you
