Rea Garvey - Darkness Lyrics

I was chasing my demons
Carrying my cross
Searching for survivors
In a battle I had lost
I had proven my valor
But I had no sense of pride
A shalden for a king
Can make you blind

I was hoping for reasons
Someone to believe in
When an angel of mercy
Appeared before my eyes

Here in the darkness
We're all the same
We are killers and lovers
With no shame
Here in the darkness
Sweet as the soul
Hiding from the sins
No one should know

I held her closer
Banishing my fears
Death's a sanctuary
For those drowning in their tears
Casting our shadows
When moving through the fire
All the weary in the wicked and the wise
In all man's confusion
He's conjured up illusions
Of a world we once lived in
Dying before our eyes

Here in the darkness
We're all the same
We are killers and lovers
With no shame
Here in the darkness
Sweet as the soul
Hiding from the sins
No one should know

I kneel down before you
My arms have no strength
My soul has no use
My energy is spent
And I ask for forgiveness
For all of my wrongs
And the light overcame me
And the darkness was gone

Here in the darkness
We're all the same
We are killers and lovers
With no shame
Here in the darkness
Sweet as the soul
Hiding from the sins
No one should know

Here in the darkness
We're all the same
We are killers and lovers
With no shame
Here in the darkness
Sweet as the soul
But when you seek forgiveness
You must know
