Shadow Kin
Can you feel that evil spreading?
I hope you are not regretting
Summoning this demon, dreading
Now it is too late for fretting
Close your eyes and look inside
Feel sickness that will never die
Watch as it multiplies galore
Fiendishly it thirsts for more
You're lying to yourself
Embrace the dark inside that swells
Welcome to your own hell
Your secret's safe, I'll never tell
Once more you delve within
Let yourself get lost in sin
That which hides beneath the skin
Breech the surface, shadow kin
Dim the lights for new insight
You can't run, no way to fight
The time has come to set things right
Widened eyes are filled with fright
You vanish swiftly as you came
But not a life will be the same
Infected by malevolence
This apathetic pestilence
That drowns your sorrows out with screams
The night your playground, haunting dreams
Become reality, now you're free
To smother the world with atrocities
