Beyond The Black - Afraid Of The Dark lyrics

Every day, I try to run, but in vain Anytime I stop, it all starts again In the shadows I cast Silhouettes of the past Every day, I lie and say that I’m cured Even though I know they’re just empty words If there’s nowhere to turn Am I destined to burn? Who is My salvation When No one’s aware I’m at war Under this skin I feel a stranger, her sadness and her rage Under this skin I hear her screaming and rattling her cage! Fight her! Fight it! I’m afraid of the dark Fight her! Fight it! I’m afraid of the dark Fight her! Fight it! I’m afraid of the dark inside me! Every year, I pray that I’ll be released On my knees, I beg and plead for some peace And the answer’s the same: I’m consumed by her flames Who is My salvation When No one’s aware I’m at war Give me the light that I need to defeat the dark! Give me the light that I need to escape! If we Cursed instead of Blessed Help me Lay us Both to Rest
