Darker days
Dark dreams followed cloudy days
And still darker days came whistling through the door like a storm that won't let go until it's had its tribute
And I
Stood amidst the chaos
As flames leapt up, devouring
And all the world collapsing
Into rubble at my feet
Triumphant
Defeated
I remained amidst the chaos
This darkness
This storm
I am its creator
Its victim
And lone survivor
And still darker days came whistling through the door like a storm that won't let go until it's had its tribute
And I
Stood amidst the chaos
As flames leapt up, devouring
And all the world collapsing
Into rubble at my feet
Triumphant
Defeated
I remained amidst the chaos
This darkness
This storm
I am its creator
Its victim
And lone survivor
