In The Dark Lyrics

There's less colors than there used to be

And less time there is ahead of me

Can't help thinking that the bad I've done

Is paying off in pain that I receive

There's less flowers in the field of dreams

There's less passion now inside of me

Why should I try if I have to tie

Myself to misery?

Everybody is preoccupied

With living their own life

Depending on my light

So why am I in the dark?

Why am I in the dark?

How can I see

How to be better than

I used to be?

Can a person change?

Or do we just stay the same?

There's less stars above than nights before

But more bottles from the liquor store

If I drown in whisky brown

Maybe then I could be at peace

There's less hope inside than I once had

Dropping the optimist from seasons past

How can I cheer if every year

I lose myself to fear?

Everyone is running their race

While I'm staying in place

Spotlight on my shame

So why am I in the dark?

Why am I in the dark?

How can I see

How to be better than

I used to be?

My reflection begs for change

He's screaming "get out the way"
