I want to walk
Into the light
Day has turned cold
So hold back the night
What will become
Of you and I
We had a dream
Don't let it die
Do you want to be
Do you want to be
My dying day
My darkest hour
My overdose
Cuz that's what you'll be
Just hold back the night
There was a time
I'm sure you'll agree
We saw it all
A glorious sight
Everyone's burned
Everything's gone
What we were then
Now we are not
So hold back the night
Do you wanna be
My dying day
My darkest hour
My overdose
Cuz thats what you'll be
Just hold back the night
(Cuz thats what you'll be)
Just hold back the night....
