Darkness Lyrics

Darkness falls on another day
A dealer deals, a mother prays
She doesn’t know - it’s too late
She’s already dying

And we’re falling in the darkness
You said you’d never let it go
And we’re falling in the darkness
Are we losing our control?

A public voice we never see
Utters words on your TV
Police raids here are cosmetic

Across the street you check your bills
A prophecy not yet fulfilled
She turns a trick, you wonder who's pathetic

And we’re falling in the darkness
You said you’d never let it go And we’re falling in the darkness
Are we losing our control?

Day breaks and she wonders why
Remembering begins to cry
Kicks a chair, pulls down the blind
Takes off her prescription

Outside the door life goes on
Detox mother's baby's born
The radio now more forlorn
Now we have come full circle

And we’re falling in the darkness
You said you’d never let it go
And we’re falling in the darkness
Are we losing our control?
[x2]
