Come Back
~~~
Evil lurks in each of us.
In the dark places of our hearts
It waits.
A Beast haunts your steps.
I can sense it, hiding in your shadow.
It bides its time.
I can see it
Following in your footsteps.
It hangs over you.
How long can you hold on?
Often now, a Beast uses your eyes.
It's taking you over.
I feel it in each of us,
Searching for a foothold, a way to rule.
It's found its puppet.
Why can't you see it, feel it?
You're in its claws, doing what it wants.
It has control.
I want to save you,
Bring you back to the light, the good.
Jack, come back to me.
