The Dark side
From the realms of depression... A place neither far nor near Where reality is never clear Cold, dark vast and wide This place is called the Dark side A place full of hate and anger Where kinsmen and friends are total strangers Where souls die because of pride This place is called the Dark side Therein we feel God’s never there Because of pain, fear and despair… And tribulations from which we try to hide This place is called the Dark-side Dismal attempts to try and repress Bad things that you’d rather forget Cause you not to realise That you’ve ventured through the Dark-side Some stay short term so as to mend Some stay until the very end Others just can’t decide This place is called the Dark-side To this place I’ve already been and gone I’d wish it not for anyone For I just escaped by the skin of my hide From this place called the Dark-side It wasn’t easy It took some time I very nearly lost my mind But now I’ve left this place behind This place is called the Dark-side However… From this place you can surely leave If only you just perceive That life is not a smooth ride Then you’ll be free of the Dark-side This place is unique, one of a kind The Dark-side is a state of mind Past encounters compel me to Relay this advice to you… For those of you already there Mark well these words and don’t despair No matter how bad your life may be Never detach from reality Step one to your trials and how to solve them Is first to acknowledge you have a problem Step two to life’s little game Don’t waste time looking for someone to blame To improve your state look nowhere else Except internally towards yourself Life’s battle is tough Stand firm and strong Walk tall and fight don’t turn and run For if you try to run or hide You’ll forever remain in the Dark-side Finally I must relate To those who’ve suffered not this fate The fortunate ones on whom God’s Grace Has prevented entrance to this place Should life change and start to spin Take good note of the following… When life seems dim and almost done Strive hard and you shall over come I pray that you will never find This place I call the Dark-side |
