Try to keep my head held high On the ground reaching for the sky Balanced on the long and narrow way But every now and narrow way My good intentions and my dreams Are cast aside as something Rears its ugly head The dark side comes to the surface Turns me inside out The dark side like whirlwind Tears me up and then it spits me out On the level pulling through But all alone it gets to you Slowly silently it drags you down The dark side comes to the surface Turns me inside out The dark side like whirlwind Tears me up and then it spits me out Under the hammer Knowing you can't turn back home But there's no way out Every step just leads you to the edge The dark side comes to the surface Turns me inside out The dark side like whirlwind Tears me up and then it spits me out
