Ever The Dark

Ever the dark come calling ever the ground gone shake
Ever it don't stop rainin' ever the dam gone break
Now and then we let a little light in, then back again, drawing the blinds
Ever the dark come calling, ever the sun don't shine

I'm tired of shooting myself in the foot every shotgun blast
Renders my best-laid plans kaput, fly's my flag half-mast
Even when I've been keeping mind right, setting my sights on, whoa
Ever the dark come calling, ever the light lay low

Ever the dark come calling ever you can't say when
Ever the sun come shinin' ever the roof caves in
Even when I'm gone say it again, we got trouble like it never been known
Ever the dark comes calling, ever the light stay gone

I'm gonna change my number, gonna change my friends
Take myself to meetings child, let it all sink in
I tried faking it, thinking I was making it and shakin' it a time or two

Shame, shame, I've been fanning that flame, been landing that blame on you
Hey, hey baby, what do you say if we ever get back gone leave it that way

Ever the dark come calling, ever the light lay low
Ever the moon say, "Don't blame me", ever the stars say, "who"
I heard talkin' bout a line worth walkin' been balkin ever since day one
Ever the dark come calling, ever they ain't no fun
