No Turning Back

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh

Verse 1

Candle flickers on the wall

Shadows gather at my feet

I could step across the line

Or stay here in the warm retreat

Light is patient waits for me

Holds its arms out open wide

But something pulls me toward the shade

Where the moonlight learns to hide

Pre-Chorus

Every angel whispered no

Every voice said turn around

But I heard the silence call

And I followed it down

Chorus

Choose the dark

Choose the cold

There's no turning back once you behold

Choose the night

Choose the stone

Every road you walk you walk alone

Post-Chorus

Darkness

Darkness

Take me now

Verse 2

First it felt like velvet gloves

Soft and patient sweet and slow

Now it sits behind my ribs

Teaching everything I know

I traded morning for the void

I traded laughter for the ache

The mirror shows a stranger's face

And I wonder what I gave away

Pre-Chorus

Every angel whispered no

Every voice said turn around

But I drank the quiet down

And I let the dark surround

Chorus

Choose the dark

Choose the cold

There's no turning back once you behold

Choose the night

Choose the stone

Every road you walk you walk alone

Post-Chorus

Darkness

Darkness

Take me now

Bridge

If I could find the door again

If I could see the sun

I'd trade these hollow victories

For just a single one

But the path is closed behind me

And the gate has turned to rust

I chose the dark so long ago

And the dark chose me to trust

Chorus

Choose the dark

Choose the cold

There's no turning back once you behold

Choose the night

Choose the stone

Every road you walk you walk alone

Post-Chorus

Darkness

Darkness

Take me now

Darkness

Oh-oh

Take me now
