It used to be so simple, it was a world I understood I didn't know what I didn't know, and life seemed pretty good But now the darkness rises From somewhere deep inside of me Her power overtakes me Can I keep this midnight from getting free? If I can stay with the light, I know I'll be free And I can start to be whole, I can start to be me But instead I am struggling with all that I see And these friends Mustn't see the midnight in me The midnight in me Mustn't see the midnight in me
