A guy making a confession to a priest. Something takes over without warning. It's a beast inside of me, Why the 'of'?
fighting to get out. -We all have our inner demons, but we must learn to control them. -I'm trying, father, the best way I know how. I drive through Metropolis at night, searching for a way to save myself. And when i find someone who's lost their way, I reach out. Helps them? When I stop the wickedness that I see...it keeps the beast from coming out. -Stay on your righteous path, my son. Be not overcome of evil.Do not let evil overcome you? And does that sentence sound right?
But overcome evil...with good.
