Still Here in the Dark

Verse 1

Same damn demons, same old war,

Same dark footsteps at my door,

Round and round, I’ve walked this road,

Dragging shadows, bearing loads.

Every sunrise, every night,

Every wrong and every right,

They come crawling through my head,

Whispering the words I dread.

Pre-Chorus

Don’t blink, don’t breathe, don’t look away,

I disappear with every day,

If anybody cared to know,

They’d hear the thunder down below.

Chorus

I’m fighting the same damn demons all my life,

Dancing with the darkness underneath the knife,

Every time I run, they’re running right behind,

Every door I close, they’re waiting in my mind.

Don’t blink, you might miss me in the night,

One fading shadow disappearing from your sight,

If anybody cared, they’d hear my silent cry,

I’m still walking through the dark beneath a dying sky.

Verse 2

Hear the forest, hear it breathe,

Hear the branches scrape the leaves,

Moonlight trembling through the trees,

Darkness whispering on the breeze.

Feel the earth beneath my feet,

Cold and warm where shadows meet,

Hear the ocean crash and roll,

Like a heartbeat in my soul.

Pre-Chorus

Don’t blink, don’t breathe, don’t turn away,

The night has got a price to pay,

I’ve walked the line, I’ve crossed the flame,

And every demon knows my name.

Chorus

I’m fighting the same damn demons all my life,

Dancing with the darkness underneath the knife,

Every time I run, they’re running right behind,

Every door I close, they’re waiting in my mind.

Don’t blink, you might miss me in the night,

One fading shadow disappearing from your sight,

If anybody cared, they’d hear my silent cry,

I’m still walking through the dark beneath a dying sky.

Bridge – Slow & Haunting

The woods go quiet…

The moon hangs low…

The earth feels warm…

The cold winds blow…

The ocean calls…

The tide comes near…

The darkness speaks…

I disappear…

But somewhere underneath the pain,

A dying spark still calls my name,

And though the night may hide the flame,

I rise and face the dark again.

Final Chorus – Bigger

I’m fighting the same damn demons all my life,

Dancing with the darkness underneath the knife,

Every time I run, they’re running right behind,

Every door I close, they’re waiting in my mind.

Don’t blink, you might miss me in the night,

One fading shadow disappearing from your sight,

If anybody cared, they’d hear my silent cry,

I’m still walking through the dark beneath a dying sky.
