Dark Days

This endless night

This funeral dirge

We celebrate life

At the end of the earth

When everything is gone

There'll be nothing left to lose

The ice is closing in

And nothing will remain

We took what we could get

And we burned it anyway

With all those secrets

We swore we'd take 'em to the grave

The light will falter and will fade

And in the darkness we'll say

This winter hasn't been so rough

Oh it was cold but still it wasn't cold enough

To freeze the blood beneath my spine

And at least I survived

We're sleeping through the days

And sinking like a ship

We're wasting away

Bit by bit

Everyone is gone

And everything is changed

It won't ever be the same

And when it's over we'll say

This winter hasn't been so rough

Oh it was cold but still it wasn't cold enough

To freeze the blood beneath my spine

And at least I survived

We've had some dark days

We're in the thick of it now

And when the ice breaks

There will be no one around

We've had some dark days

We're in the thick of it now

And when the ice breaks

There will be no one around

This winter hasn't been so rough

Oh it was cold but it wasn't cold enough

To freeze the blood beneath my spine

And at least I survived

This winter hasn't been so rough (we've had some dark days)

Oh it was cold but still it wasn't cold enough (we're in the thick of it now)

To freeze the blood beneath my spine (and when the ice breaks)

At least I'll survive
