Embrace The Darkness

(album: Box - 1997)

I know you're in there somewhere, just searching for yourself
And I also know you feel despair, you don't need to cry for help
I've realised that feeling like a heart of ice that melts
And trickles down into your gut, and chills your every cell

I can't tell you to ignore it
I can't make it go away
Accept this as a part of you is all that I would say

Embrace the darkness
Don't be afraid
Embrace the darkness
Let your soul be laid bare
Embrace the darkness
And reach within yourself
Embrace the darkness, embrace the dark

A broader sense of paradox might be our key to life
The something that we all look for could be there before our eyes
But does anybody give a care who's wrong or what is right
Sometimes there may be more to gain if we would yield instead of fight

I can't tell you to ignore it
I can't make it go away
Accept this as a part of you is all that I would say

Embrace the darkness
Don't be afraid
Embrace the darkness
Let your soul be laid bare
Embrace the darkness
And reach within yourself
Embrace the darkness, embrace the dark

Reach out reach in… have faith believe in yourself
Reach out reach in… take heart pay heed to yourself
