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 could burn us
We didn't care cause we were cool with thicker skin
Down by the lakeside, 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 lakeside 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 just the start
Just the start

Of the darkness; the world's biggest secret
The darkness; It's hard to believe it
The darkness; Yeah they all tried to keep it
The darkness; And now you can't cheat it

The darkness; The worlds not a fair place
The darkness; A just or a kind place
The darkness; You just gotta embrace
The darkness; Yeah you just gotta embrace
The darkness

And now im 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
Oh drown in the darkness
The darkness
