(Long Musical Intro) (Verse 1) I came in hot with a crack in my chest You saw it first and you knew about the rest Hands placed on the floor, I should have run But you said my name in vain like I was done Your slightly lit shadow fell across my skin Cold as a decayed lock on some worn-out sin I held my breath and I held my own ground But your complete silence pulled me down (Pre-Chorus) And I really tried to look away But you stayed flowing in my veins Every single step, every single word Turns to a fine dust when you say my name (Chorus) Your darkness overcomes me comes over me Your darkness overcomes me comes over me I kept reaching for the light But you tried to pull me deep down under I’m no scientist, you see, but do what’s right Let the truth set you free with a clap of thunder Your darkness overcomes me comes over me (Verse 2) There’s a mark where your ring used to rest A pale ghost line near your left wrist I washed the sheets, I smashed the frame Still your face lives hollow in the flame You left a lingering smell in the center hall A wet one rushed in with a sulfur smell fall Now every mirror located around my room Tells me that I became yours way too soon (Pre-Chorus) And I really tried to look away But you stayed flowing in my veins Every single step, every single word Turns to a fine dust when you say my name (Chorus) Your darkness overcomes me comes over me Your darkness overcomes me comes over me I kept reaching for the light But you tried to pull me deep down under I’m no scientist, you see, but do what’s right Let the truth set you free with a clap of thunder Your darkness overcomes me comes over me (Verse 3) If I were to break your hold just for tonight Will the black sky split open and wide? Or will I adorn your name once again Like a deep bruise beneath my tattooed skin A careful review of our tense relationship Glows like a spiraling out of control rocket ship Lifting up a chorus of encouragement That binds our souls with twisted derangement (Pre-Chorus) And I really tried to look away But you stayed flowing in my veins Every single step, every single word Turns to a fine dust when you say my name (Long Musical Solos) (Chorus) Your darkness overcomes me comes over me Your darkness overcomes me comes over me I kept reaching for the light But you tried to pull me deep down under I’m no scientist, you see, but do what’s right Let the truth set you free with a clap of thunder Your darkness overcomes me comes over me
