Ever The Dark

[Verse 1] Ever the dark come callin' Ever the ground gon' shake Ever it don't stop rainin' Ever the dam gon' break Now and then, we let a little light in And then we're back again drawing the blinds Ever the dark come calling Ever the sun don't shine [Verse 2] I'm tired of shooting myself in the foot Every shotgun blast Renders my best laid plans kaput Flies my flag half mast Even when I've been keeping my mind right Setting my sights on woe Ever the dark come calling Ever the light lay low [Verse 3] Ever the dark come calling Ever you can't say when Ever the sun come shinin' Ever the roof caves in Even when I'm gonna say it again We got trouble like it's never been known Ever the dark come callin' Ever the light stay gone [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] I'm gonna change my number, gonna change, my friend Take myself to meetings, child, let it all sink in I tried fakin' it, thinkin' I was makin' it, shakin' it a time or two Shame, shame, I've been fanning that flame Then rammin' that blame on you Hey, hey baby, what do you say? If we ever get it back, why don't we leave it that way? [Verse 4] Ever the dark come calling Ever the light lay low Ever the moon say don't blame me Ever the stars say it won't I heard talkin' 'bout a line worth walkin' Been balkin' ever since day one Ever the dark come calling Ever it ain't no fun
