i didn't see the darkness as it came
rushing like a rainfall over me
one second there was sun the next there was nonei didn't feel the pressure on my back
like a vampire breathing down my neck
chasing me away from you and everything i ever lovedi never meant to let you down
but i'll never let them take me now
the dream is dust the deed is done
and i've got my hands around the guni never meant to play this part
i never meant to break your heart
but here in the shadows we decide
either we're dead or we survivei think you're getting close to seeing now
it's you and me against everybody else
and i don't want to doubt that you won't make a soundand i could pretend i was sorry yeah
and i could pretend that it hurts so bad
but everything i do i do it all againi never meant to let you down
but i'll never let them take me now
the dream is dust the deed is done
and i've got my hands around the guni never meant to play this part
i never meant to break your heart
but here in the shadows we decide
either we're dead or we survivei've got a darkness deep inside
but here in the shadows i'm alive
so if you're looking for me just look straight down
it's here in the shadows i'll be foundi never meant to let you down
but i'll never let them take me now
here in the shadows we decide
either were dead or we survivei never meant to let you down
but i'll never let them take me now
the dream is dust the deed is done
and i've got my hands around the guni never meant to play this part
i never meant to break your heart
but here in the shadows we decide
either we're dead or we survive
