Getting Dark 05:00
Wasted time bears a consequence that I Just can’t believe is mine Thought I’d never die Took it all so, so for granted Haunted by every lie that I try to justify And I just can't abide that we only got one life Then we perish from the planet When it’s getting dark is when you see The price of each vice comes so suddenly And learning who you really are Takes sacrifice and getting scarred Nothing’s free The right thing means fighting so stubbornly Remember that you’re never far From the day it all goes dark One regret, never met with the ghost of future past ‘Cause if I had the chance I’d remove the mask And jump bare into the rapids But no lament can revive all the years that I misspent And now I feel the chill of the fading will I should’ve cherished while I had it When it’s getting dark is when you see The price of each vice comes so suddenly And learning who you really are Takes sacrifice and getting scarred Nothing’s free The right thing means fighting so stubbornly Remember that you’re never far From the day it all goes dark When it’s getting dark is when you see The price of each vice comes so suddenly And learning who you really are Takes sacrifice and getting scarred Nothing’s free The right thing means fighting so stubbornly Remember that you’re never far From the day it all goes dark

Darkness feral and so cold Within me Is where I fear to go A forest treacherous and unknown Befriends me Yet I leave it so alone All the outre stifled wishes When the hour strikes I bask in reverie And take the throne in my Eldritch grove Shadows shadows The abyss beneath my soul Can I ever atone To my eldritch grove In every one of us The grove is a place That can never be effaced Reign in the sufferance Bear its embrace To become no more a slave So I revel in submission To my devil thrusting me on to liberty I claim the throne in my Eldritch grove Shadows shadows The abyss beneath the soul Can I ever atone To my eldritch grove My darkling grove Rebellious rogue Valorous And all my own Shadows shadows The abyss beneath my soul Can I ever atone My eldritch grove Shadows shadows The abyss beneath my soul Can I ever atone To my eldritch grove

What might could conjure a right For someone to take from me My home I built from these stones That stands here above the sea Was I one who paid for their guns The willing majority Now I see what I’ve done is let them become The ruling authority There’s no in between If all will believe it is it true? Is it true? If all will agree could they be played for fools? Who are the white knights the masses approve? Does that give ‘em the right to rule? The sins of the fathers have wrought an army of martinets This hierarchy we’re taught Obey never question it Our sons and daughters grow strong but what are they headin’ for, when the wrongs that we’ve held so tight for so long come bangin’ upon their door? Bang on their door If all will believe it is it true? Is it true? If all will agree could they be played for fools? Who are the white knights the masses approve? Does that give ‘em the right to rule? If all will believe it does that give ‘em the right? It’s not right If all will believe it is it true? Is it true? If all will agree could they be played for fools? Who are the white knights the masses approve? Does that give ‘em the right the right to rule? What might could conjure a right for someone to take from me? Will I rise and decry or step back in line and grant the authority... the right to rule

It seems like everyone’s for sale Shiftin’ winds n' weighted scales ‘N there’s no anchor in the night, no no Airbrushed lies and lullabies The siren song to close our eyes But I won’t go without a fight, no no We are Like dying stars Raging through the shadows We’ve come too far To flee the battle So give your heart ravishing and fragile Like dying stars If we’re just a spark Stand A candle in the dark We are Our fear will drive us from the truth Twist our minds, infect the youth If no one questions their beliefs, oh no So break the chains get off your knees Who ever told you that you need To ask permission to be free, no, no We are Like dying stars Raging through the shadows We’ve come too far To flee the battle So give your heart ravishing and fragile Like dying stars If we’re just a spark Stand A candle in the dark If we’re just a spark Stand A candle in the dark We are We are Like dying stars Raging through the shadows We’ve come too far To flee the battle So give your heart ravishing and fragile Like dying stars If we’re just a spark Stand A candle in the dark

She is where it all began A chemical reaction that I could never explain Took seconds to detonate 3 2 1 detonate Never ever been so blown away We’re a pyro’s fantasy Settin’ the world ablaze We detonate Big bang emotion Bombs away We hold on together Big bad explosion No escape We hold on forever We take the blast Stay standin’ fast Like superheroes Hold on forever It ain’t just a flash We’ll last At ground zero We got an atomic passion Ain’t no stoppin’ it from happenin’ We couldn’t be tamed Once we got a little taste 3 2 1 detonate Never ever been so blown away It’s a pyro’s fantasy Seein’ ya next to me We detonate Big bang emotion Bombs away We hold on together Big bad explosion No escape We hold on forever We take the blast Stay standin’ fast Like superheroes Hold on forever It ain’t just a flash We’ll last At ground zero Like nuclear lovers Made for each other Set to detonate Big bang emotion Big bad explosion Bombs away We take the blast Standin’ fast At ground zero Big bang emotion Bombs away We hold on together Big bad explosion No escape We hold on forever We take the blast Stay standin’ fast Like superheroes Hold on forever It ain’t just a flash We’ll last At ground zero
