Necessary Evil
I come creeping in the night
When your guard is down
I infiltrate your veins
Only enemies surround
I take what you most desire
The only voice you hear
Follow me to your willing death
I am your worst nightmare, surprise
I come in the night
Destroy you when you're most vulnerable
Before you see me I strike
Before you open your eyes, you're dead
I am what you most desire
The newest voice in your head
Open your mind and let me in
Close your ears and hear me within
What if there is no justice?
What if there is no crime?
What if there are no rules
That say what I do is not right?
What if the scales are corrupt?
Do I get a second chance?
What's there to stop me from taking over
When anarchy rules the land?
I brazenly assault in the day
Attack when you least expect
Given the esteemed title, "Enemy of mankind"
Known by only a few as what's inside
I am what keeps you alive
Also known as the necessary evil
Without me you have nothing to fight
Without me, you have nothing to believe
I come in the day
Assimilate you into my collective individuality
Not even a pawn on a chessboard, but nonetheless you're mine
Ready to fight and die without knowing why, if I so desire
I am the reason you exist
I am what makes the good seem so pure
I am the blackest of evil
I am what makes your cause so sure
So what if there's no justice, it's only truth or dare
Fuck any given rulebook, it's only what I say from here
Rip the scales away from justice, these days it's a fucking joke
Use any bullshit you can to allign the world behind some misguided cause
I am the world's most wanted
I am the world's most hated
I am paranoia, suspicion, xenophobia, genophobia, darkness and silence
I am one of the few things that has kept humanity alive
Like women. Can't live with em, can't live without em.
