Darkness Keeps Chasing Me

[Verse 1]

Opening my eyes

Seems like it gets harder sometimes

Look at the skylight

Would you be mad at me if I tried running away to it in the night?

I tried to fight

But I'm not strong enough

I just want you here

But I also want to be alone

I don't know what I want anymore

[Chorus]

Every now and then

The darkness tries to chase me

And my legs are getting tired of running

Oh, please don't

Please don't let it get to me

Oh, I don't wanna give up that easily

But the darkness keeps chasing me, me

[Verse 2]

Hiding places remind me of you and I

I wanna call you

But if I hear your voice

I just might cry

And I don't even know what the song's about, anymore

And I don't know what I want, anymore

[Chorus]

Every now and then

The darkness tries to chase me

And my legs are getting tired of running

Oh, please don't

Please don't let it get to me

Oh, I don't wanna give up that easily

But the darkness keeps chasing–

[Bridge]

Weather streams down my cheeks

I look to my right

See you're blowing smoke in your ripped jeans

Don't tell me you fell in

The darkness is already seeping through

Oh, can't you see?

I will be different

I'm not sure if I can do it all alone

God, I want to be different

But I'm not sure if I can do it on my own

[Chorus]

'Cause every now and then

The darkness tries to chase me

And my legs are getting tired of running

No, no, no, no, please don't

Please don't let it get to me

Oh, I don't wanna give up that easily

But the darkness keeps chasing me

Me, me, me
