The Darkness

Remember it was just the two of us?
Yeah, it was
Yeah, it was
Remember promisin' we'd never grow up?
Time was ours just because someone said that it was
Someone said that it was

Nothing could hurt us
The Sun couldn't burn us
We didn't care 'cause we were cool with thicker skin

Down by the lake side
Felt like a lifetime
Invincible just 'cause we had no idea
About the darkness

Soon enough I couldn't wait to be grown
I'd be free, guaranteed
Dressin' up and drinkin' way too young
Just to feign independence
I wish that I'd known
Yeah, I wish that I'd known then

Down by the lake side
It was the first time
You took my hand, said everything will fall apart
You talked of sadness, chaos and madness
Said trust me, this is only jus the start
Just the start
Of the darkness (world's biggest secret)

Of the darkness (it's hard to belive it)
Of the darkness (yeah, they all tried to keep it)
Of the darkness (and now you can't cheat it)

Of the darkness (the world's not a fair place)
Of the darkness (a just or a kind place)
Of the darkness (you just gotta embrace)
Of the darkness (yeah, you just gotta embrace)
Of the darkness

And now I'm older
The world is colder
Can anybody tell me if it's supposed to feel like this
The years are blurry, I'm getting worried
I'm wondering how can anyone not drown
I will drown
In the darkness
The darkness
