Afraid Of The Dark

Yeah, oh

I've given my life
I suffered and sacrificed to find
That fear is only fatal 'til it's alchemized
To heal is to repurpose
Take the stage and siphon all the power from the pain
I turned my struggles into my strength

If the answer is in the unknown
Would you question the path you take?
If the past didn't hurt to let go
Would your future be yours to reclaim?

You'll never know yourself 'til you walk alone
With blind faith and broken bones
So, follow the light in your heart
And be not afraid of thе dark

Will you follow me to where lovе met destruction?
Doubt only dies if you keep pouring trust in
Fight or surrender your dreams
'Cause it's give up or give everything

You'll never know yourself 'til you walk alone
With blind faith and broken bones
So, carry the torch in your heart
And be not afraid of the dark (dark)

How much are you willing to bleed
To suffer for what you believe?
We can't see the end from the start
So, don't be afraid of the dark (dark)
And walk with me

From the ashes, I was reborn free
And from the grave, I was rebuilt by what broke me
Rebuilt by what broke me, blegh!

So, tear me apart, and you'll see
You'll see the spine, the heart, the blood on the dirt
You'll feel the pain, the rage that feeds on the hurt
On every scar is a badge of a lesson I've learned
That took me 20 fucking years to earn

And now, I know I don't have to do this alone
A creature that found a home
When life drained the light from my heart
You pulled me from the dark

I've given you everything (everything)
A lifeline in pieces of me (pieces of me)
We can't see the end from the start
But I don't fear the dark

Dark inside with purpose and passion
Sweat and blood, from Stockholm to Scranton
Fight or fright, arise from the pages
Fear not the dark, if you mean it, you'll make it
(I don't fear the dark)
