Dark Heart, UNWRITTEN

instrumental

The air still tonight,
the darkness not sitting right,
the thoughts in my head,
and how my heart has bled.
Reaching through the night,
trying to make everything right,
falling short of the void...
love lost so many times in the noise.

I watch the people come and go,
and I find my quiet
in the knowing that they'll never know
I have to let go.
Of course I have to let go...
damn...

The air fills my lungs,
and I want to let it scream true,
the heavens know I do...
but the night steals it away.
Come tomorrow, another day.

Damn this Dark heart! I crawled my way through,
this dark heart, losing it for you,
and I'll never once be truly home...
Dark heart, I lay here...
will the light ever shine through.
to you...

A thousand years of faces,
all the empty rooms I walked through,
I crossed every distance...
but you're the one thing standing between.
The noise is all the time I survived,
every life I had to endure,
and somewhere lost inside it
is the only thing I grieve.

God Damn this Dark heart! I crawled my way through,
this heart, losing it for you,
and I'll never once be truly home...
broken heart, I lay here...
will the light ever shine through.

I always found the way out...
every door, every wall,
I read the room, I made the exit,
I survived it all.
But this is the one I can't slip,
the one black I can't cross,
and letting go was never strength...
it was just the name I gave the loss.

I'd make a joke right here,
I'd land it, God, you know I would,
but the punchline's just your name
and I can't... I can't...

I counted every one of you,
every name, every loss, I held the line...
fuck the line. Fuck holding.
I just want you back.

aaaahhhhhhhhhhh!
Goddammit...

solo

From the black of my heart, I'm still reaching for you,
dark heart, the silence answers true,
and it'll never once be truly home...
from this dark heart, I lay here...
and the light never shined through.
I miss you...
