I'm taking my life. to the pawnshop on a dusty summer-fall morning
     Because at this point I'm not sure what to use it for anymore
               And they'll give me cash for trash
   Like a mountain of crushed cans in exchange for a dream money can buy in a clear plastic baggie

Darkness came to me and
he said he's my friend
And you are not,
Is that true?

Silence

Darkness came to me and
He said he can be trusted
And you cant,
is he lying?

Silence

Darkness came to me and
He said everything will be okay,
Is he right?

Silence

Darkness came to me and
He promised me a better life,
Should I go?

Silence

Darkness consumed me
And you didn't care,
But as soon as he came  for me,
Your silence turned into shouts,
Your shouts turned into riots,
Your riots destroyed your life,

But,

Darkness consumed me way before,
And only after I left
You answered me.
