Dark Days

about

Dark Days is about our tendency as humans to choose apathy over empathy. The goal of the song was to shine light on the pain we cause when we do this. While the song definitely has a darker tone it also reminds us that hope can be found in unlikely places.

lyrics

Tell yourself it is what it is
Day in day out one step at a time
The smoke is clearing but the room's closing in
Can you finally see it was all fucking lies

Here we stand we'll go back to the start
But my soul's so broken and my dreams left with my heart
A new beginning, just another dead end
How do we find ourselves in this world that we're living in

The dark days are almost over
I feel it coming to an end
The dark days are almost over
But the blind eye cannot see
There's no second chance

From the top of the mountain "what we touch turns to gold
But for god and for country sounds like profit and war
In songs of sorrow, they're crying out
It's the end of the line

How can you look innocence in the eyes and say "I'm sorry child but your future has died
How can you look innocence in the eyes

The dark days are almost over
I feel it coming to an end
The dark days are almost over
But the blind eye cannot see
There's no second chance

Someway, somehow
We can make it out alive
I tried to let go
There's no truth in this life
Someway, somehow
We can make it out alive
I tried to let go
There's no truth in this life

It's the end of the line
