Darkness
Twiztid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How come this wasted time
Is such a loss expressed on minds side
I'd give you everything
If you'd just let me stand beside you
Your kind is so amused
And still confused bout what you live with
Your darkness just won't go away
Your light, inside for you to shine on today
Nothin but darkness in me
(Chorus)
Darkness, night time
No moon in the sky tonight
Feeling like our lives been tucked away, today
Life is darkness, forever remain and again
(Monoxide)
How come these things you say
They always seem to grow and haunt me
I'd give you everything
If you'd just let me stand beside you
You seem to think that I
Would let things slide and have you change me
This darkness just won't go away
No light inside for me to shine on today
Nothing but darkness in me
(Chorus)
{Guitar Solo}
(Chorus)
(Monoxide)
And again (15x)
(Monoxide)
No light inside for me to shine on today
Nothing but darkness in me
(Chorus)
The song "Darkness" by Twiztid is a melancholic reflection on the struggles of living with inner darkness and the pain it can cause. The lyrics are somber and express the singer's desire for an end to the darkness they feel inside. In the first verse, Madrox sings about wanting to help and support someone who is struggling but feeling helpless in the face of their pain. He speaks of the hopelessness that comes with trying to understand someone else's darkness and the futility of trying to eradicate it. The chorus further reinforces the feeling of darkness and isolation, with the singer describing the absence of light and hope in their life.
In the second verse, Monoxide reflects on his own challenges and how the words of others can trigger negative feelings and memories. He also acknowledges the fear of change and the desire to hold onto the familiar, even when it is causing pain. The guitar solo adds an element of raw emotion and intensity to the song, reflecting the pain and struggle that the lyrics convey.
Overall, "Darkness" is a deeply introspective and emotive song that speaks to the universal human experience of grappling with inner demons and the desire for healing and hope.

I cannot say this is my favorite album with all the amazing work these 2 have put out. I have a top 5 in no order, and this is most certainly in it. What an incredible album for a band who, at the time, had little professional help in mixing, producing, and writing. This album absolutely eclipsed anything they had done until this point and was easily a pivot point for the demented duo. I've been a Twiztid Fan since day 1, and they still are just blowing me away with their art whether it's brand new, or 28 years old.

This was their coming of age album. Straight classic right here.
The Shining Final Fantasy Force
Absolutely.

God.. gives me goosebumps still almost 20 years later. My Juggalo best friend was killed in 2007 on Dec 17th unexpectedly. His Mother and Father didn't understand juggalos 100% but they knew what their son would have wanted. They let us Juggalos all wear our Juggalo attire to the funeral and after. It was hard and very sad and so beautiful at the same time. They released doves. The Juggalo family stood strong back then. I gave him the shirt off my back literaly. I watched the OGs bring him gear that was priceless. Original jerseys signed by the Twiztid and Psychopathic team. I had a Jeep at the time with a system that shook the ground. We played this one for him along with others in memorandom. For the next 10yrs each year we would buy him a faygo and ourselves one to give him a faygo shower. He was a true scrub. Whoop Whoop

@Pro Keds Thank you ninja, I appreciate it. His family is doing much better. I don't think it's something we ever fully heal from.
