Fear waits around every corner In every dark alleyway Behind the eyes of every stranger Sheltered in the unseen and unknown

Who am I? I don't know what it means to be me I don't know what my voice sounds like

Every time I make a mistake That mistake creates another vulture circling Hanging there, waiting To remind me of that time I was less than I could be

(“Yami” is Japanese for “darkness”)

Swirling darkness all around It's all I hear, the only sound

Every night I can feel it Like some evil spirit Watching me in the dark Waiting for the spark Of fear that will breathe life into its world and intensify the strife That I feel every hour to remind me I have no power
