Virtue
This is the end of everything
Of all that is and will ever be
Never see me carefree, happy go lucky life
Internal world war, brain angry, fucking strife
Fuck the light, turn it off, don't turn it up
Future like a read parchment, go burn it up
Churn 'em up, feelings rage, hurricane winds
Stay numb, always numb, the Novocaine wins
You know the name is Hidden and it's so true
Barely know myself, what makes you think I wanna know you
Darkness my virtue, let the words brew
Spells so dank and dirty that the outcome will hurt you
I dwell in a land, hot like Sudan, the man's wicked
People see something's off about me like a damn Wiccan
Sickened by my vision so I keep the sunglasses on
No need to see the light now that I see that the past is gone
See me passing on in a boat, ride the river Styx
Clinically declared sane, how come I'm still considered sick
Always riddled with bad decisions leaving remnants
Of broken promises and the empty bags they were delivered in
Darkness is a virtue
Darkness is a virtue
Never see me happy in the world I live
Wasn't meant for me, I got nothing more to give
Darkness is a virtue
Darkness is a virtue
Cut the lights off, darkness my only friend
Living life wrong, heartless I wont pretend
Fake smiles, fake faces, fake places
Fake everything, the burden that fate places
When the soul's gone everything left is arbitrary
Ordinary battle scars become hard to bury
Kind of scary, how one can lose the game but never play it
Or how one thing can be so true that we never say it
Never may it be said that I didn't try to be something more
That I didn't given my everything, my spirit to the core
But the floor grew tall, made of glass of my design
And the ceiling grew small from the ravages of time
The ever fated clock that never stops
Ticking time bomb, the neighbor that never knocks
So many thoughts and I don't want a single one
Revert to hermit, arm the locks like a lethal gun
Leaving none behind me, and no one before
When nothing's all that's left, then you know nothing's in store
Nothing more, never more, Edgar's raven speaks the truth
To those who disagree then I propose you go and seek the proof
When darkness is a virtue there's nothing left to come
I struggled to cope with hope but stuck left with none
Darkness is a virtue
Darkness is a virtue
Never see me happy in the world I live
Wasn't meant for me, I got nothing more to give
Darkness is a virtue
Darkness is a virtue
Cut the lights off, darkness my only friend
Living life wrong, heartless I wont pretend
Of all that is and will ever be
Never see me carefree, happy go lucky life
Internal world war, brain angry, fucking strife
Fuck the light, turn it off, don't turn it up
Future like a read parchment, go burn it up
Churn 'em up, feelings rage, hurricane winds
Stay numb, always numb, the Novocaine wins
You know the name is Hidden and it's so true
Barely know myself, what makes you think I wanna know you
Darkness my virtue, let the words brew
Spells so dank and dirty that the outcome will hurt you
I dwell in a land, hot like Sudan, the man's wicked
People see something's off about me like a damn Wiccan

Darkness is a virtue
Darkness is a virtue
