Dark Days Indeed (Live)
When I was born, I shamed the dawn
I saw the angels cry
I raised my arms and made the stars tremble in the sky
When I sang, the choirs were humbled
When I danced, the mountains crumbled
I chased the waves back into the sea
I feasted on the fatted calf, I drank whole cities dry
I made the devil dance for me, I spat into his eye
I said, "So long Jack, we hardly knew you,
Here's to hell, and hallelujah
Take this rock and shake it 'til it bleeds"
'cause these are dark days indeed
These are dark days indeed
These are, dark days, dark days,
these are dark days indeed.
We don't know who put this cup of life into our hands
But when we go, our bones will bake on the burning sands
'cause we walk but once among the living
So no regrets, and no forgiving
It's hard to dance when you're down upon your knees
(Refrain)
I saw the angels cry

I feasted on the fatted calf, I drank whole cities dry
I made the devil dance for me, I spat into his eye
I said, "So long Jack, we hardly knew you,
Here's to hell, and hallelujah
Take this rock and shake it 'til it bleeds"
'cause these are dark days indeed
These are dark days indeed
These are, dark days, dark days,
these are dark days indeed.
We don't know who put this cup of life into our hands
But when we go, our bones will bake on the burning sands
'cause we walk but once among the living
So no regrets, and no forgiving
It's hard to dance when you're down upon your knees
