Darkness

I can't escape the darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-dark, da-dark, dark

It turns out
Everything is bullshit
Egregious
Self-satisfied
But I've been trying not to think like that, no
I gotta be positive
There's a lot of good things about life
It's been a hell of a ride so far
And there's still more to go

I've been trying for a while
Can't even bring myself to smile
It's like dyin' for a cause
That I do not believe in
I try to understand the light
I try to fall asleep at night
I'm givin' her all she's got
And I don't wanna fail

But I need some darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-dark, da-dark, dark

After all these years
I'd been hoping for a glimpse of the other side
I spent a lot of time on the good stuff
Just to learn, well maybe that's not my ride
I try and try and try and try
And then it all starts over again and again and again
I ask myself why (Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?)
Why do I even pretend?

I was trying for a minute
But that was before I found sin
And now that I have I'm not sure
I wanna go back again
I tried to understand the light
Never fell asleep at night
I did what I could with what I had

But I gotta have darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-dark, da-dark, dark

Now the time has come
Day is on the run
Night has fallen now for good
Just like I always knew it would
Hope you said goodbye to light
Because it's in the past
It was never going to last
Now the sky is black and everything's falling down
Life is like a lost and found
Sometimes you get lucky
And the world is black

How can I feel this way?
I thought the light was here to stay (Here to stay)
But now the darkness
Da-da-da-darkness
Here for good
I knew it would
But I thought I might have light

I will have darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-darkness
Da-dark, da-dark, dark
