Verse 1
Is it safe to trust yourself?
well I thought so
But there are details that stay hidden from the eye
I thought that I knew my own secrets and made my own decisions
but there’s something in the dark
affecting my mind
It brings out the worst in me
and devours me from the inside
it feels like all the anger and hatred
are overwhelming my heart
and the only way to set myself free
would be just to let it all out
So I imagine the world in flames
and I don’t feel regret
Chorus
The darkest side of me
that I hoped I’d never see
it emerges from nowhere, it drives me insane
I don’t recognise myself…
Verse 2
there’s a place deep in my soul
I wish I never came to know
there are monsters and they mock me, tell me I am weak
So I wanna prove them wrong
and I fall into their arms
darkness covers me and I feel incredibly strong
So my heart begins to race
bringing my blood to a boil
I feel that I’m starting to fall apart
and get lost in my darkest thoughts
all the screams I keep hearing inside
they bring clarity to my head
I don’t wanna leave, it makes me complete
feels like I belong in here
Chorus
The darkest side of me
that I hoped I’d never see
it emerges from nowhere, it drives me insane
I don’t recognise myself
is this a part of me,
someone I wanna be?
It’s killing me slowly I don’t wanna die
I need to find a way out
is there someone to help,
to see that I’m afraid?
I’m scared of the creature that I have become
I can’t go on like that
Bridge
I really tried to hide it within me
because it ruins my life completely
I tried to close my eyes for an instant
like it never existed
I wanna have control over my life
wake up and leave this madness behind
to see the light replacing the darkness
not letting it harm us
Chorus
The darkest side of me
that I hoped I’d never see
it emerges from nowhere, it drives me insane
I don’t recognise myself
is this a part of me,
someone I wanna be?
It’s killing me slowly I don’t wanna die
I need to find a way out
is there someone to help,
to see that I’m afraid?
I’m scared of the creature that I have become
I can’t go on like that
