(verse 1)
Take my hand
Accept our souls entwined

Let me out
From the shadows of your mind
(shadows of your mind)


Speak my name
And set my power free

Embrace this darkness
You've locked away in me
(locked away in me)


(chorus 1)
Don't deny the darkness

Don't deny the beast within
Embrace the rush of madness
The force within your hands

(force within your hands)
It's time
Let me in

Don't you hide little child
Leave fear behind
Howl fiercely with pride


(verse 2)
Take my hand

Leave the fear behind
Hear my voice
Let our forces bind

(let our forces bind)

Speak my name

And share this world with me
Enhale the freedom
You've locked away in me

(locked away in me)

(chorus 2)

Don't deny the darkness
Don't deny the beast within
Embrace the rush of madness

The force within your hands
(force within your hands)
It's time

Let me in
Don't you hide little child
Leave fear behind

Howl fiercely with pride

(spoken)

Rain falls heavy in this world when your heart is in pain
If you trust me to be your strength, it will never rain again


(guitar and keyboard solos)

(spoken)

Be unfolded before me, my inmost chaos
Peace overflowing within the source of my dismay


(chorus 3)
Don't deny the darkness
Don't deny the beast within

Embrace the rush of madness
The force within your hands
It's time

Let me in
Don't you hide little child
Leave fear behind

Howl fiercely with pride

(final chorus)

Don't deny the darkness
(oh don't deny!)
Don't deny the beast within

Embrace the rush of madness
(the rush of madness!)
The force within your hands
It's time
Let me in

Don't you hide little child
Leave fear behind
Howl fiercely with pride

Rush of madness!
