The Dark of You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It must have been inside my head
I lost the hope that I have left
And not at last it comes to pass
We sleep, we dream, we have no less

Along the path we lost our way
It’s all a game that I must play
And now the weak that fall
Return to ash, defeated after all

[Chorus]
Fade away to the wicked world we left
And I become the dark of you
Say a prayer for the wounded heart within
As I become the dark of you

Let go, when all has come to life
We live, we breathe, we die
They call me to the light
Forever lost inside

With every dream we find
We feed, we burn, we lie
The fall of humankind
The everlasting light

[Chorus]
Fade away to the wicked world we left
And I become the dark of you
Say a prayer for the wounded heart within
As I become the dark of you

Let go, when all has come to life
We live, we breathe, we die
They call me to the light
Forever lost inside

With every dream we find
We feed, we burn, we lie
The fall of humankind
The everlasting light

[Outro]
Let go
Save this selfish world
Let go
Save this selfish world
Let go
Save this selfish world
Let go
Save this selfish world

So first of all, I can't believe there is only 1 comment for this song!! And honestly, I am not here to give my interpretation of this songs meaning, but I just thought I'd share an embarrassing memory that happened to me... The first time that I heard this song was while watching a "lyric" video on YouTube and it quoted the song as saying - "We know this kind of life" instead of "When all has come to life" and even though I know the real lyrics now, I still catch myself singing the wrong ones because that's what my head was tricked into thinking they were! SMH. As you could guess, I no longer watch lyric videos on YouTube!!
