Welcome 2 The Darkness

(альбом: Cruce Signati - 2010)

Welcome to the darkness where nobody don't know your name...
These streets are so cold I can feel it in my veins
Welcome to the darkness where nobody don't feel your pain...
Every non believer wanna tell me that I'm never gonna be nothing, but it's all the same
I keep thinking about the purpose of the pain...
Is it for the fame? Is it for the game?
Us selling our souls for pocket change?
Chopping up these rocks and things, knowing in the end that we're not gon' change
So a young man going through things gotta prove things...
Them things become his chains with nothing left to blame
Sitting on a never ending life of shame
Shame! I don't like to think about it...
What's the point of faith if my heart's gonna doubt it?
You can see it in my face, I don't speak until I'm about it...
There's things I can't erase in my past I ain't proud of...
But it's hard to step up out of it when out of it means
You done stepped out the furnace and all that's left behind is get murdered or clap burners
Trade living for nothing with dying for purpose
And it'll take a lot more than prison walls and pistols to hurt us
Hurting deep inside I'm a slave to mind's eye
Running while I'm blind by everything that shines
I burn it until I'm dead high...
Living like I can't die
Yet never catch the signs, things are destined to decline
Everything seems hopeless, so focused on another man to tell us where the hope is
So we follow these preachers and politicians with their 'hocus-pocus'
Never think about the signs of the End Times, so we stand blind while the day approaches...
Waiting for the Eighth Beast Empire to start this, and mark us...

Welcome to the Darkness...
At the back door
Open up the eyes to your mind and your soul
Welcome to the Darkness...
Forget about what you know
The world's about to change, so get ready for the show
Welcome to the Darkness...
It's time, won't you get it through your mind while everything is fine
Things are destined to decline
All the signs of the times point to the End Times...
Things are destined to decline, to decline Welcome to the darkness

"Peace"...
"Peace"...
"Peace" in the Middle East...
About as far-fetched as peace, peace on America's streets
Ain't gon' be no peace until the Beast proclaiming "Peace"
Meets the Prince of Peace during the 70th Week!
Whether you're a degenerate pastor or spiritual bastard
Or just a faithful, solid Christian anticipating the rapture
Until we lay our sin down at the foot of our Master
You can expect a steady rise in natural disasters!

Welcome to the Darkness...
At the back door
Open up the eyes to your mind and your soul
Welcome to the Darkness...
Forget about what you know
The world's about to change, so get ready for the show
Welcome to the Darkness...
It's time, won't you get it through your mind while everything is fine
Things are destined to decline
All the signs of the times point to the End Times...
Things are destined to decline, to decline Welcome to the darkness
