Darkness

Lyrics

Verse 1 – slow, ominous]
Your eyes are a well without end
A black tide that never bends
I see the storm beneath your skin
And I feel the silence screaming in

[Pre-Chorus – brooding build]
I can't save you, not like I wish
But I swear this: I won’t vanish

[Chorus – heavy, distorted power]
I know it looks dark with you, but let me tell you:
No matter what hole you're in right now – I'll sit with you
I know, no matter how much I want to
I can't help you the way I want to
But I will sit with you
And try to brighten up your darkness a little
Not to blind you – just enough to breathe
No matter what comes, I’ll stand by you

[Verse 2 – emotional, brutal honesty]
You are no burden, no disgrace
You carry pain this world won’t face
I see you breaking in your shell
But even shattered, you're still yourself

[Pre-Chorus – intensifying]
I won’t offer hollow light
Just presence through your longest night

[Chorus – scream/clean vocal mix]
I know it looks dark with you, but let me tell you:
No matter what hole you're in right now – I'll sit with you
I know, no matter how much I want to
I can't help you the way I want to
But I will sit with you
And try to brighten up your darkness a little
Make it more bearable, even if it stays broken
No matter what comes, I’ll stand by you

[Bridge – slow, with growl build-up]
Let me be your anchor
That won't let you drown
In darkness completely
When you forget how to breathe
When your voice has no sound
I'll be the one who doesn’t run

[Final Chorus – full instrumentation, emotional climax]
I know, no matter how much I want to
I can't help you the way I want to
But I will sit with you
And try to brighten up your darkness a little
Not to fix you – just to feel with you
No matter what comes…
I’ll stand by you
In the dark.
