Deep from my psyche, a darkness lurks
A part of me hidden, a side that's hurt
The shadow self, the identity untamed
Desires and impulses, I'm ashamed

Shadow's embrace, the truth I hide
The aspects of myself, I keep inside
Confront the darkness, face my fears
Integrate with the shadow, shed my skin

Repressed emotions, bottled up rage
The shadow grows stronger, breaking from its cage
Projecting onto others, what I can't accept
The darker aspects of my persona, I can't neglect

Shadow's embrace, the truth I hide
The aspects of myself, I keep inside
Confront the darkness, face my fears
Integrate with the shadow, shed my skin

Narcissistic, Solipsistic, I've discovered I'm a bit sadistic
It's a revelation, I'm eccentric
I've always put myself first, what a mess I am
There's pleasure in causing myself pain, a dark symphony

I used to think I was just self-centered, focused on my own gain
But now I realize, there's more to my disdain
I enjoy watching humanity crumble, it's a sadistic thrill
Manipulating events, bending them to my will

Shadow's embrace, the truth I hide
The aspects of myself, I keep inside
Confront the darkness, face my fears
Integrate with the shadow, shed my skin

I'm not afraid of my darker sides anymore
Impulses take over, I've opened the door
To a world of temptation, a path less taken
My shadow side, my soul's awakened

Rip away my empathy, I'll embrace the insanity
I'll walk the path of shadows, where my demons reside
No more holding back, I'll let my darkness out
I'll let the darkness out

(I'll let the darkness out)
(I'll let the darkness out)
