Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've made mistakes, the Lord struck me down
Caught in a landslide, lost underground
I hear them gates swing open loud
Come close to midnight, hell sent me down
[PreChorus]
And then my eyes got used to the darkness
And everyone I knew
Was lost and so long forgotten after you
[Chorus]
Now would you break before you twist the knife?
Yeah, would you take my hand and take a life?
I'm too damn young to give up on the light
I'm used to the darkness, I'm used to the darkness, hey
I'm just a man, I'm only flesh and bone
I can't bring it back on everything I've done
And now there's no one else left to love
I'm used to the darkness, I'm used to the darkness, hey
[Verse 2]
Sweet smell of roses
Have come at last
One fist of earth fights
To come join the rest
[PreChorus]
And then my eyes got used to the darkness
And everyone I knew
Was lost and so long forgotten after you
[Chorus]
Now would you break before you twist the knife?
Yeah, would you take my hand and take a life?
I'm too damn young to give up on the light
I'm used to the darkness, I'm used to the darkness, hey
I'm just a man, I'm only flesh and bone
I can't bring it back on everything I've done
And now there's no one else left to love
I'm used to the darkness, I'm used to the darkness, hey
[Bridge]
I got used to the darkness too
I got used to the darkness from you
I got used to the darkness too
Yes I did
[Chorus]
Would you break before you twist the knife?
Would you take my hand and take a life?
I'm too damn young to give up on the night
I'm used to the darkness, I'm used to the darkness
I'm just a man, I'm only flesh and bone
I can't bring it back on everything I've done
And now there's no one else left to love
I'm used to the darkness, I'm used to the darkness
[Outro]
I'm used to the darkness, I'm used to the darkness, hey
