The contingencies of a day unravel my senses And now your distance is darkness My hope has been beset by your absence I decay from inside Underneath it all there is still life Despite it all there is still love

From your memory Without your love Another day without you It's getting harder to face (harder to face) It's even louder in the silence And it's always the same The darkness always finds me

Burning fires burning lives on the long distant roads Through the lost mountains endless so far away from home Warrior soldiers forever we fought long ago We're all lost in the darkness so far away from home We will ride with fire burning hot towards the

We build cathredrals to our pain Establish monuments to attain Freedom from all of the scars and the sins Lest we drown in the darkness within Here in the darkness that I lay Depression heavy in its weigh And how my body aches to leave To sing its final

Put my fears behind Before I fall The cold is real, now that I know I know that I can find The meaning of it all I know you bleed for me A journey with open eyes From darkness to light The scars I feel, but I won't let go (won't let go)

Does it almost feel like How am I gonna be an optimist about this? And the walls kept tumbling down In the city that we love Grey clouds roll over the hills Bringing darkness from above But if you close your eyes, Nothing changed at all? And if you close

Out of the dark Into the light Leaving my mark Free from the traitors gate The river shows no mercy The tower looms into my view I sense my execution's closing With darkness all around me The axe is ground to end my days

Leave a light, a light on In the darkness before the dawn In the swirling of this storm When I'm rolling with the punches and hope is gone Millions of miles from home In the swirling swimming on When I'm rolling with the thunder but bleed from thorns

You deceived that he believed In the bloodstained cross All the players in this world Won't help you now Cut off from the The door is about to slam shut Armageddon, drawing near As darkness, it comes You all fall

Ooh, we're creatures of the night Searching in the darkness Running from the day Hiding from tomorrow Nothing left to say Victims of the moment Future deep in doubt Living in a whisper Until we start to shout
