Dark Days

This endless night
This funeral dirge
We celebrate life
At the end of the earth

When everything is gone
There'll be nothing left to lose

The ice is closing in
And nothing will remain
We took what we could get
And we burned it anyway

With all those secrets
We swore we'd take 'em to the grave

The light will falter and will fade
And in the darkness, we'll say

"This winter hasn't been so rough
Oh, it was cold, but still, it wasn't cold enough
To freeze the blood beneath my spine
And at least I survived"

We're sleeping through the days
And sinking like a ship
We're wasting away

Bit by bit
Everyone is gone
And everything is changed

It won't ever be the same
And when it's over, we'll say

"This winter hasn't been so rough
Oh, it was cold, but still, it wasn't cold enough
To freeze the blood beneath my spine
And at least I survived"

We've had some dark days
We're in the thick of it now
And when the ice breaks
There will be no one around

We've had some dark days
We're in the thick of it now
And when the ice breaks
There will be no one around

This winter hasn't been so rough
Oh, it was cold, but it wasn't cold enough
To freeze the blood beneath my spine
And at least I survived

This winter hasn't been so rough (we've had some dark days)
Oh, it was cold, but still, it wasn't cold enough (we're in the thick of it now)
To freeze the blood beneath my spin (and when the ice breaks)
At least I'll survive
