The Deepest Dark

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.

Oh God, I wish

That you would still my restless heart

Or stop its beat from going on, on

The light behind the life is gone

Even my shadow has left me for dead

'Cause in the blackness of this night

It comes alive, it comes alive

Jumping at shadows, at shadows

And I can't say they are my own

I'm running from shadows

They're the only ones who haven't left me alone

If home is where they say the heart is

Then I've never, never been close to home

And if misery loves company

Then how am I so alone?

If home is where they say the heart is

Then I've never, never been close to home

And if misery loves company

Then how am I so alone?

I've never been home

Never been close to you

Screaming at the breeze

Words you once spoke to me

In the right place I hear whispers

Calling back my name

Oh death

How I have missed your warm embrace

If home is where they say the heart is

Then I've never been close to home

If misery loves its company

Then how am I so alone?

If home is where they say the heart is

Then I've never, never been close to home

And if misery loves company

Then how am I so alone?

If home is where they say the heart is

Then I've never, never been close to home

And if misery loves company

Then how am I so alone?
