Dark Days
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Learning to breathe again
For the first time
In so long now
Learning to see again
Through my pride
Learning to speak again
From my heart
Learning to be a friend
For the first time
For the first time
In so long
For so long (x7)
Feel like I'm losing time
When I worry
'Cos yesterday won't change
Starting to free my mind
From the shadow of doubt
That keeps me in darkness
Testing the air outside
My chamber
Into the danger
Pushing my limits high
To the red line and over
And why have I waited
So long
For so long (x6)
Oh!
Why have I waited?
Why have I waited, yeah
Well it's hard to be happy
In a world that's so cruel
Where the weak just get weaker
Where the powerful feud
Where the children go hungry
While the soldiers stand by
Lay down your weapons
Take hold of your lives!
And when will we learn
That it's hate that breeds hate?
Only love is the cure
Don't leave it too late
Get up, and feel it
The truth that won't wait
If we choose to do nothing
Then we take all the blame
