Back Into Darkness

(album: 1990 - 2021)

You give and you give
Just to get there and fall
You take and you take
And for nothing at all
You run and you run
Straight into the wall

You don't wanna go there
But your mind goes astray
You can handle the fear
But you can't take the pain
You can jump off the edge
Cause the endings the same

There's a lot in your head
You got nothing but time
We could figure it out
'Cause you'll always be mine
You can turn this around
But you can't stand the drive

You fall back into darkness again
Realize you can only wish it's pretend
No lie, you're in it deep this time, my friend
My friend, oh oh
You fall back into darkness again
Realize you can only wish it's pretend
No lie, you're in it deep this time, my friend
Back into darkness again

You try and you try
But it never gets done
You won't hesitate
When your feelings are numb
There's a lot on your plate
But the damage is done

You can try to react
But you know it's the same
I would take what we had
And I'd throw it away
I'm missing your touch
And I'm going insane

You fall back into darkness again
Realize you can only wish it's pretend
No lie, you're in it deep this time, my friend
My friend, oh oh
You fall back into darkness again
Realize you can only wish it's pretend
No lie, you're in it deep this time, my friend
Back into darkness again

Trapped in a relapse
Trapped in a release
Trapped in a relapse
Again and again
Trapped in a relapse
Trapped in a release
Trapped in a relapse
Back into darkness, my friend

Trapped in a relapse
Trapped in a release
Trapped in a relapse
Again and again
Trapped in a relapse
Trapped in a release
Trapped in a relapse
Back into darkness, my friend

You can let it all go
But you can't say the words
You wanna back down
But you know it still hurts
I'm calling you out
But it's all just a blur

You fall back into darkness again
Realize you can only wish it's pretend
No lie, you're in it deep this time, my friend
My friend, oh oh
You fall back into darkness again
Realize you can only wish it's pretend
No lie, you're in it deep this time, my friend
Back into darkness again
