I saw the forecast, but I still went out in the rain Wrote promises on the back of a lie, and watched them wash down the drain They say silence is golden, but I've just been hoarding the rust I built my future on faith, and then I choked on the dust Oh, the killer of the quiet light is standing here tonight He stole the golden thunder from the middle of the fight Yeah, I trade my honest pennies for the darkness I can keep It's a heavy kind of freedom when you finally lose your sleep I keep the photograph of the man I promised I'd be It's just a faded joke now, hung up for everyone to see The ghosts in the wallpaper are counting every single mistake But I won't bow down to the price I have to pay for the choice I had to make Oh, the killer of the quiet light is standing here tonight He stole the golden thunder from the middle of the fight Yeah, I trade my honest pennies for the darkness I can keep It's a heavy kind of freedom when you finally lose your sleep I tore down the curtains, let the evening light pour in Realized the journey was worth more than the win With broken chains around me, I faced the rising sun Turning shadows to past echoes, the battle's just begun Oh, the killer of the quiet light is standing here tonight He stole the golden thunder from the middle of the fight Yeah, I trade my honest pennies for the darkness I can keep It's a heavy kind of freedom when you finally lose your sleep
