Darkness In The Eye of Man

Your mind is a hand grenade
ready to explode
Shrapnel rips through your minds eye
And distorts your frontal lobe

Darkness in the eye of man
Hides deep and out of sight
Like the calm before the storm
Getting ready to ignite.

When the lord bestowed freedom to man
To do with as they pleased
Man yearning for salvation
Became consumed by greed.

Fighting inside, soon to break free
The demons in our hearts
Searching for more lost souls
For them to tear apart

But hidden beneath those evil beings
A small glimmer of light
So bright that it consumes the hordes
And burns brightly in the night.

When the lost hit rock bottom
They turn back to the lord
"Lord please give me strength
To rise up, be restored"

"Speaketh not of evil, child
Speak not of what you've done
For on this road you travel
You do not go alone"

"I am with you every step
Through the valley of the dark
And when you feel you can't go on
with me you shall embark"

"Now go my child, do not delay
Rise now, do not wait
Remember that I walk along
But it is you that decides your fate."
