Dark Passenger

I couldn’t possibly feel that need

Like a thousand hiding voices

Whispering

“this is who you are”

And you fight the pressure

The growing need, rising like a wave

Prickling, and teasing,

And prodding to be fed

But the whispering gets louder

Until it’s screaming “now!”

And it’s the only voice that you hear

The only voice you want to hear

And you belong to it.

To this

Shadow-self

To this

The dark passenger

The dark passenger.

And you belong to it

The dark passenger.

And you belong to it

The dark passenger.

And you belong to it

To this

Shadow-self

To this

The dark passenger.
