Forest of Change


It’s something different I can’t explain

Some dreaded beast that was never slain

Tried escaping tried running

But what’s worth running when you don’t know what’s coming?

The forest of change is a lovely place

One of which that we can never replace—

Though its light is ever so bright

Darkness and evil hide in its light.

I’m hoping that it won’t find

The one place in my heart it can hide

Don’t think that it will find it

But guessing is worst then the real hit.

Cause the forest of change is a lovely place

One of which that we can never replace—

Though its light is ever so bright

Darkness and evil hide in its light.

Get away get away before it’s too late

Don’t want to see any blood on anyone’s fate

Just keep running though I’ll never reach the door

I still have to try; I won’t fall through the floor.

Cause the forest of change is a lovely place

One of which we can never replace—

Though its light is ever so bright

Darkness and evil hide in its light.

I won’t let this darkness from me my dreams

And plot within evil schemes

I won’t let it ruin anymore- lives

I won’t let it live or thrive!

Cause the forest of change is a lovely place

One of which we can never replace—

Though its light is ever so bright

Darkness and evil hide in its light.

So I will keep on fighting forth

Even let my body and personality morph

But I won’t let the darkness in

I will not allow it to win...

Because the forest of change is a lovely place

One of which that we can never replace—

And though its light will continue to shine

Darkness prowls on its border line.
