There’s a Shadow land inside us

we know its there

it slowly seeps to the surface

until we no longer care

it’s the feelings blocking your smile

all the doubts that bring you down

some fight to see the light again

while others never turn around

the darkness lurking within

only needs a second of hurt or pain

for it to grab and pull you under

and create a world of disdain

so fight it with everything you have

and never let go of what you need

for the darkness will grow stronger

your doubt is all it needs to feed

Beware of the Shadow land

before it becomes too late

or life will be something you can’t stand

and you’ll no longer control your fate
