The 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.
You try and keep me out of sight
You try and keep me out of sight
And out of mind
Out of mind
You try and keep me from the light
You try and keep me from the light
But I know it's mine
I know it's mine
You’re rigging the game
You’re part of the system
It shows in the way
That you never listen when I speak
I’m not gonna wait
I’ve made my decision
And I’m not gonna sit in the dark anymore
No I’m not gonna sit in the dark anymore
You’re always telling me I'm not
You’re always telling me I'm not, not enough
But I’m enough
You’re always turning back the clock
You’re always turning back the clock
But time is up
Time is up
You’re rigging the game
You’re part of the system
It shows in the way
That you never listen when I speak
I’m not gonna wait
I’ve made my decision
And I’m not gonna sit in the dark anymore
No I’m not gonna sit in the dark anymore
We’ve taken our knocks
We’re not gonna take them anymore
We’re not gonna stop
Cause we've seen a world worth fighting for
Ready or not
Together we’re kicking down the door
And we’re not gonna sit in the dark anymore
No we’re not gonna sit in the dark anymore
