Darkland is a place within us all...
Take away my eyes
I can’t use them anymore
The sun that used to be right over me is gone
And everywhere I see
I just see someplace I’d much rather not be
Hear the cries of all the people that have come here before
They don’t feel no more
It’s a Darkland
And I cry these tears but they’re for nobody but me
Over again
Then over again
I don’t know what to say
And I’ve no one to say it to
And I have no place to go
And I’ve nothing much to do
And it feels like Hell
Rolling and rolling in pain
Timeless are the nightmares
For they have always been
They’ve been here forever and all these days
They’re my dreams
And yes, I call on reality
And it always slips…
…it always slips away

It’s out of control

I have known the many
And I have known a few
And we’ve all outdone ourselves in denying the truth
So I sit here in my torment and wonder why...
Why…
Why am I here?
Why am I here?
No one knows the answers
And we don’t know where we’ve been
We all just woke up to find ourselves here
And it never, ever ends in the Darkland
In the Darkland
