LYRICS
-- LEAD LYRICS --
Everything that I despise
Consumes me when I close my eyes
And I don't know if I can change the way I feel
Despite the light that you have shone
The dark has become what I know
And I am fighting to find my way out of it
I am trying so hard to forget
This constant aching feeling
That stirs inside my chest
This fear in me always drags me down
The guilt I feel will not let me get up again
I'm crushed by the weight
I was younger then
Careless and innocent
I never thought my words could mean so much
But I am older now
I should be screaming out
So why is it that I keep my mouth shut?
Why do I try so hard to forget
The forgiveness that is in your hands
The mercy in your words
You are calling me to seek you and find rest
And leave behind the emptiness that holds me in the dark
That holds me in the dark
I hope you can hear me
I'll keep singing this song
Even if there's no air left
And dirt fills up these lungs
Please keep the lights on
I am trying to make it home
The sun is sinking
But I won't go down with it
Please keep the lights on
I am trying to make it home
The sun is sinking
But I won't go down with it
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
I won't go down with it
-- HARMONY 1 LYRICS --
And I don't know if I can change the way I feel
What I know
No to forget
No
me down
Up again
Crushed by the weight
Mean so much
I should be screaming out
Mouth shut?
No to forget
No
find rest
Holds me in the dark
Please keep the lights on
The sun is sinking
But I won't go down with it
But I won't go down with it
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
I won't go down with it
-- HARMONY 2 LYRICS --
And I don't know if I can change the way I feel
What I know
And I am fighting to find my way out of it
No
No
Up again
I'm crushed by the weight
Mean so much
I should be screaming out
Mouth shut?
No
No
Holds me in the dark
Please keep the lights on
The sun is sinking
But I won't go down with it
But I won't go down with it
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
The sun is sinking
I won't go down with it
