Story behind the song
I stayed away for a long time on purpose, but now I'm back with a new persepective.
Lyrics
Deep in the trenchs, I keep sweatin', But the last few years really hasn't done anything, To make me come out of my shell, That's when the whole world is gonna be dark as hell, I've held everything back, so I can await the day, When all evil people in my life are thrown away, Sit and worry, why should I pity, The same people that have already killed me, I stepped foot on the surface, for one purpose, And shook everyone, and they got nervous, 'Cause I've been going to a darker place, And if I took them there, they won't save their face, The reality of showing death to them, Makes them think that their own lives are just slim, And they change themselves when the lights go dim, I'm out of the shadows, let the mayhem begin, (Chorus 2x) I've died more than once over, And when my heart's beating, I'll never recover, 'Cause that's the empty thoughts when your mind swells, And I'm human again, and dark as hell... I'm still here with all my flesh and bone, Wherever my mind takes me, it's where I'm going, 'Cause all I try to do is relieve the pain, That makes you dark, and drives you insane, 'Cause in that state, it kills you endless, You think you're alive when you're still in bliss, Try to live your life and you still act foolish, It gives you your last death wish, It's crunch time, and you want to run the show, The fate of life and death's upon, do you know where to go? With six hours left on death row, Do you want 6,000 volts or the oceans undertow, Or would you rather be saved by me, Open chest so I can make your lungs breathe, Completely stop your heart, to skip it one beat, And make the darkness deplete, agony and defeat. (Chorus 2x) Regression, recession, in a whole new depression, Anguish is a turn when life is a lesson, 'Cause you got to study hard, because the hard time, Will grip you and whip you until you're in line, You'll find that what you have once, Will stay forever in your guts, It hunts you, it haunts you, beats you down, But you get back up from the underground, Come around again, and I'll forgive your sins, Hold your own, in life's dark defense, Time's will get tense, place your bets, Determine where you go when the suns sets, It's not complex, but it's a want and need, Red to blue, and then black I bleed, I bark at the moon and become a new breed, It's whatever you percieve it's what you see, This embodied battle in this body is art, No 9-volt battery will even kickstart, The evil darkness inside, when all is well, And I still remain on Earth, dark as hell. (Chorus 4x)
