[Verse 1] If light didn't exist, I'd learn the shape of your face By the weight of your breath in a room with no trace Count the scuffs on the floor, read the cracks in the wall Hear the lies get small when the dark gets all I don't need a skyline to know where I stand Got mud on my boots and a map in my hand If the sky went silent, I'd still hear the ache Still know every promise that people break [Pre-Chorus] No glow, no guide Still I move inside Hands out, heart open Cold can't close me [Chorus] If light didn't exist I'd still not miss I'd still not miss I know what I am in the dark (in the dark) If light didn't exist I'd still stand hit I'd still stand hit Tell 'em I was built for the dark (for the dark) [Verse 2] Wouldn't call it a curse if the truth was this clean You can hide in a shine, but you can't hide a scheme I seen pride turn gray when the room went blind Seen a fake man fold and a real one grind If my eyes had to fail, I'd use every scar Every bruise like Braille, every shake like a star Not the kind up above, the kind under my skin That keeps burning low when the cold crawls in [Pre-Chorus] No glow, no guide Still I move inside Hands out, heart open Cold can't close me [Chorus] If light didn't exist I'd still not miss I'd still not miss I know what I am in the dark (in the dark) If light didn't exist I'd still stand hit I'd still stand hit Tell 'em I was built for the dark (for the dark) [Bridge] And if the world went black I'd keep my pact With the pulse in my chest Won't ever ask back Let the shadows press Let the fear confess I was made from that place Where the weak things rest [Final Chorus] If light didn't exist I'd still not miss I'd still not miss I know what I am in the dark (in the dark) If light didn't exist I'd still stand hit I'd still stand hit Tell 'em I was built for the dark (for the dark)
