Array ( [sid] => 21642 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Turn Away From the Light [time] => 2003-08-09 00:35:00 [hometext] => Kind of repetitive but o well,it works [bodytext] => Retreat to the darkness
Give into the madness
Let go of everything
Let go of the sadness
Wrap yourself up
In the void of the night
Give yourself up
Turn away from the light
Give in to the faces
Leering from the shadows
Walk to unknown places
Sleep in the dark meadows
Of the unknown
Wrap yourself up
In the void of the night
Give yourself up
Turn away from the light.
Listen to the voices
That come out of thin air
Rest in that place
Where you’re everywhere
But nowhere
Wrap yourself up
In the void of the night
Give yourself up
Turn away from the light.
Listen to the melody
Feel evil’s irresistible lure
Let cold fire caress you gently
Be free of the pain that you endure
And cherish it
Wrap yourself up
In the void of the night
Give yourself up
Turn away from the light
Come to a world
Where darkness is the light
Where everywhere is nowhere
And there’s no reason to fight
Wrap yourself up
In the void of the night
Give yourself up
Turn away from the light.
Let the shadows speak to you
Listen to what they say
Twirling in evil's black satin gown
Never be afraid
Turn away
Wrap yourself up
In the void of the night
Give yourself up
Turn away from the light. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 176 [topic] => 43 [informant] => blackfire9786 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Retreat to the darkness
Give into the madness

Wrap yourself up
In the void of the night
Give yourself up

I love it!!! It flows brilliantly, and I think you repeated those 4 lines just the right amount. I don't think it was too repetitive at all, it sounded perfect everywhere you put it everytime you put it in. Excellent write!!!
