Older Days

They keep saying brighter days are coming But the mist is getting thicker and thicker As I'm fading away Twenty eight, still going through changes Getting lost in the process Three or four times a year Feelings aside, I've made a deal with the devil Told me life down there could be beautiful Feeling the high, feeling the heat Maybe this is where I've always wanted to be So let's sink Take me back to older days 'Cause I'm afraid I'll never be the same Here's my love letter Dear evil within Dishonest to myself Designer of my own coffin Strolling 'round the block Like I know what I'm doing Still not afraid of dying Yet I'm afraid to live Scared of the dark But I thrive in the darkest places At the deepest of my heart, I know I went too far It's a one-way now, there's no turning back No longer the man I was, taking off the mask Acting like a wolf but I'm just a rat Take me back to older days Cause I'm afraid I'll never be the same Linger on nothing Dust in the wind Still the song remains the same It's bittersweet how I can't seem to change Here's my love letter Dear evil within There's no dawn without dusk Woop! Something's taking over me, Jekyll and Hyde Not enough room in this body for both you and I Between day and night, always split in half Hiding in the shadow so I can't be found Take me back to older days Cause I'm afraid I'll never be the same Linger on nothing Dust in the wind Still the song remains the same It's bittersweet how I can't seem to change Here's my love letter Dear evil within There's no dawn without dusk No birth without death, peace without war There's no me without you Brain dead insect barely kept alive by its parasite Makes me wish I'd never been alive Saw me in half, rip off the vice Take me back Take me back to older days Cause I'm afraid I'll never be the same Here's my love letter, dear evil within
