Here i am inside this burrow
Where I've dried up all the light
Look hard, it's difficult to see
The shadows hide it from sight
It is here i will stay
I dare not step outside
I know what will happen
For I've already tried
I am the essence of shadow
I'll drown the earth in dark
I'll smother every worldly light
The doom of every spark
So if u have some shadow; misery, or pain
Throw it down the opening you find
I'll simply add it to my collection
A little more can't hurt, I'll hardly mind
So now I've found a use
Take the world's pain, revive those who seem dead
And rather than drown the world in darkness
Here, in the world's pain, I'll drown myself instead
