You kissed me on the darkest night
And suddenly the world shook
I gave it all to you, believing
That you needed everything you took
You blinded me with those heavy eyes
For six days and nights of bliss
On the seventh day the dark came back
Much blacker than the night we kissed
You left me here with a hole inside
Took my soul inside your hands
Despite my fight, you stole the light
I want to let it go, but
I can't x 3
I'm trying to but
I can't x 3
You show up here and there sometimes
In the shadows and the deepest dark
Reminding me of how it used to be
Before it all fell apart
I close my eyes when the sun gets high
I hate seeing things so clear
I'm hoping maybe that'll call you back
You know that you can find me here
You left me here with a hole inside
Took my soul inside your hands
Despite my fight, you stole the light
I want to let it go, but
I can't x 3
I'm trying to but
I can't x 3
And I can't let go
And I can't be strong
And I can't start over
And I can't, I can't, I can't,
I can't move on
You left me here with a hole inside
Took my soul inside your hands
Despite my fight, you stole the light
I want to let it go, but
I can't x 3
I'm trying to but
I can't x 3
