[Verse 1]
In the dark nights I cry
With the thoughts of who I’m meant to be
I can’t sleep, this insomnia
It’s shredding the strength and blood out of me
It makes my knees weak
Nothing helps, my cuts still bleed
They’re way too deep for me
Like echoes of the war inside my mind
No one sees what I really need
So I scream where I can hide
In the darkest of nights
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the whispers in my head
They won’t leave, they want me dead
Just leave me alone, leave me in peace
Don’t wanna stay, I just want a release
[Chorus]
I want to LIVEEE—but I’m barely holding on
Silent screams in the night ’til all of my hope is gone!
Darkest of nights, they silence everything
I just want to burn and watch what the shadows bring
Yeah, I just want to burn
Let this dark night turn to the demons within.
[Verse 2]
The darkest nights are born
To strip me of my soul!
There’s no tomorrow waiting anyway
So why do I try so hard to be whole?
I’ve carried this pain I can’t explain
It’s etched behind my eyes
Can’t fake a smile, I can’t stop the rain
As another piece of me dies within
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the whispers in my head
Sick of the lies, sick of the dread
Just leave me alone, leave me in peace
I need a break, I need a release from the dark nights ahead.
[Chorus]
I want to LIVEEE—but I’m barely holding on
Silent screams in the night ’til all of my hope is gone
Darkest of nights, they silence everything
I just want to burn and watch what the shadows brings
Yeah, I just want to burn in this hell that’s holding onto me.
[Bridge]
Untold is the story that’s forgotten
But I’m not lost, just never found
I scream so loud, but no one listens
In this silence, I drown
Tried so hard to keep my place
Keep my pace, I just need some fucking space
But these nights keep pushing me
To a darker, and much colder place
[Outro]
I don’t think I’ll ever find
The courage to change my mind
But maybe, someday, I’ll leave this pain behind
And find a way to shine.
Maybe I’ll finally leave this dark night
Maybe someday I’ll find my light.
