Darkness Settles In

[Verse 1]

Another sun sets down behind me

Another day comes crashing in

There's a whispering wind that's blowing

There's a storm that's closing in

I can hear the trains, they're rolling

To a place I've never been

And I can feel her breath beside me

With an empty glass of gin

As the darkness settles in

I can hear her voice again

I can hear your voice again

[Chorus]

Waiting for someone to save me

But everyone just runs away (Runs away)

Waiting for someone to change me

But no one ever comes

I'm breaking down the walls that cage me

But nothing ever falls in place (Falls in place)

Waiting for the end to take me

Blinded by the sun

[Verse 2]

All the ghosts that live inside me

Always waiting in the wind (Wind)

I can see through my reflection

What I've become and what I've been (Been)

You see, your Heaven doesn't want me

And your Hell won't let me in (In)

It's like I'm holding all the aces

But that I know I'll never win (Win)

[Chorus]

Waiting for someone to save me

But everyone just runs away (Runs away)

Waiting for someone to change me

But no one ever comes

I'm breaking down the walls that cage me

But nothing ever falls in place (Falls in place)

Waiting for the end to take me

Blinded by the sun

[Post-Chorus]

You can take it away, tear it all down

Spit in my face, pushed to the ground

Look what I've become

I've fallen from grace, bloodied and bound

Taking up space, lost and I'm found

Look what I've become

[Bridge]

I can hear the snakes, they're winding

Singing songs of pain and sin

There's an anger overflowing

From this empty glass of gin

As the darkness settles in

And the darkness settles in

[Chorus]

Waiting for someone to save me

But everyone just runs away (Runs away)

Waiting for someone to change me

But no one ever comes

I'm breaking down the walls that cage me

But nothing ever falls in place (Falls in place)

Waiting for the end to take me

Blinded by the sun

[Outro]

(You can take it away)

And the darkness settles in

(You can take it away)

And the darkness settles in

(You can take it away)

As the darkness settles in
