Just call me Mr. Dark – Mr. Negative
I'm pessimistic, fatalistic, with an attitude
That's turned ballistic
No rhyme or reason
No symmetry and no excuse
Let it go – flow with the chaos
Hold tight 'cause I can 't refuse
Fate speaks
Fate speaks loudly
Fate speaks loudly
Can't you see there's no returning
Once you've started down this road
You've lost everything you have
And life is over
No impact 'til you make it stronger
Can't you see there's no returning
Once you've started down this road
You've lost everything you have
And life is over
No impact 'til you make it stronger
Can't you see there's no returning
Once you've started down this road
You've lost everything you have
And life is over
No impact 'til you make it stronger
Can't you see there's no returning
Once you've started down this road
You've lost everything you have
And life is over
No impact 'til you make it stronger
Can't you see there's no returning
Once you've started down this road
You've lost everything you have
And life is over
No impact 'til you make it stronger…
