[Verse 1]
There's a war behind my eyes
And I'm losing either side
Every shadow wears my face
Every thought becomes a blade
I've been running through these halls
Looking for a way back home
But the walls keep closing in
And I don't recognize myself
[Pre-Chorus]
If I disappear tonight
Don't come looking where I've gone
There's a part of me that knows
You'll only follow me along
[Chorus]
Don't follow me into the dark
There's nothing here worth saving
I'm falling further from your arms
While everything is breaking
I know you'll try to pull me out
But I'm already too far down
So if you hear me calling—
Don't follow me into the dark
[Verse 2]
The silence never stays for long
It only waits beneath my skin
Every time I catch my breath
Another voice comes rushing in
I'm tearing through the memories
Trying to find what's left of me
But every mirror that I break
Leaves another face I hate to see
[Pre-Chorus]
If I disappear tonight
Promise you won't chase me down
I can't let you lose yourself
Inside the place I'm drowning now
[Chorus]
Don't follow me into the dark
There's nothing here worth saving
I'm falling further from your arms
While everything is breaking
I know you'll try to pull me out
But I'm already too far down
So if you hear me calling—
Don't follow me into the dark
[Bridge]
I can't hear myself anymore
There's too many voices
Too many versions of me
Pulling me under
I tried to bury the noise
But it buried me instead
So let me go
Let me go
LET ME GO
[Instrumental Drop]
I told you not to follow...
You never listened.
[Breakdown]
YOU FOLLOWED ME INTO THE DARK
Through every piece I tried to hide
Through every hell inside my mind
You walked straight into the fire
Just to find me on the other side
When I couldn't find myself
When I couldn't see the light
You reached into the nothing
And held on for both our lives
YOU WERE THERE
[Final Chorus]
You followed me into the dark
When I thought I wasn't worth saving
I was falling further from your arms
While everything was breaking
I thought I was already gone
But you wouldn't let me drown
And when you heard me calling—
You followed me into the dark
[Post-Chorus]
You found me where the light couldn't reach
Held onto the parts I couldn't keep
I couldn't find my way back home
So you came looking for me
[Outro]
And if I disappear again
If the walls come closing in
If I forget the way back home...
Follow me into the dark.
