[Verse 1]
You found me in the blackout
Hands shaking
Eyes wide shut
Ash in my lungs from the old house
I swore I’d already burnt up
You lit a flame in the ruin
I felt breath in my chest again
But I crawled back to the poison
Like it ever was my friend
[Chorus]
I keep running back to the dark
While You’re giving me life
And it’s killing me again
Every cut
Every lie
God
Please take me back
Save me from myself tonight
I keep running back to the dark
When You’re giving me life
Giving me life
[Verse 2]
The mirror shows a stranger
Eyes red
Halo of smoke
I wear my guilt like armor
But all these seams are broke
You’re calling through the static
I still hear my name in the noise
But I chase the cold and the chaos
And drown out Your voice
[Chorus]
I keep running back to the dark
While You’re giving me life
And it’s killing me again
Every cut
Every lie
God
Please take me back
Save me from myself tonight
I keep running back to the dark
When You’re giving me life
Giving me life
[Bridge]
If I tear this heart wide open (hey!)
Will You heal what I can’t fix?
I am tired of this circle
Of the grave I choose to live in
Pull me out of this shadow
Break these habits like chains
If I fall
If I fall again
Don’t let me crawl away
[Chorus]
I keep running back to the dark
While You’re giving me life
And it’s killing me again
Every cut
Every lie
God
Please take me back
Save me from myself tonight
I keep running back to the dark
When You’re giving me life
Giving me life
