Standard (EADGBE)

(do chords;--;)

I've written songs in the dark

I've felt inspired in the dark

I hide myself in the dark

Used to be afraid of the dark

Those in the light know we die in the dark

(do chords;--;)

There's only artificial light here

My flaws hide well here

I used to be afraid of cluttered noises

Now I'm afraid of silence

Fill this space, idle words

Chorus

(do chords; ----;)

I'm scared to death of light and silence

Jesus, kill me inside this

Raise me up to live again

Like you did, like you did

(co stanza chords)

Now I am mute, despite myself

All of them are gone

The silence overtakes me

The idle words forsake me

And I am left to face me

I'm held accountable

For every idle word

Curse the idle words

Glory shows up

Exposes us

I'm naked here

Forsaken here, by the dark, by the dark

DAMN THE DARK!
