| I didn’t see the darkness as it came
|
| Rushing like a rainfall over me
|
| One second there was sun the next there was none
|
| I didn’t feel the pressure on my back
|
| Like a vampire breathing down my neck
|
| Chasing me away from you and everything I ever loved
|
| I 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 gun
|
| I 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
|
| I 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 sound
|
| And I could pretend I was sorry yeah
|
| And I could pretend that it hurts so bad
|
| But everything I do I’d do it all again
|
| I 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 gun
|
| I 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
|
| I’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 found
|
| I 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 survive
|
| I 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 gun
|
| I 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 |
