The Darkness

Dread wears you down 'til you can't
Even see the light of day come through
And you're stuck by a thread
Just a hangnail, you don't have a clue
And your broken heart always wants the ones who spit on you
But you know that I wouldn't have it any other way

As I'm enshrouded by thunder
In these darkened days I wonder;
Is it too late to wait 'til sundown?
Won't know until I'm six feet under

Life wanders on day by day
Till they all just blur together
How did the years pass so fast?
That’s something I may just never know
And your broken soul only finds another broken day
Won’t you take me back? Cause I want to keep you safe

As I'm enshrouded by thunder
In these darkened days I wonder;
Is it too late to wait 'til sundown?
Won't know until I'm six feet under

On LED screens, flash to white
You're the afterimage that I see
Fading fast, just like me
You're a technicolour memory
And your broken heart makes it hard for me to even breathe
That's okay, just as long as you are happy

You're the darkness in my white room
You're the moonlight on my sun roof
You're the rainclouds when my sky's blue
How many days 'til I forget you?
