- I See A Darkness LyricsWell, you're my friend and can you see?Many times we've been out drinkingMany times we've shared our thoughtsBut did you ever, ever notice, the kind of thoughts I got?
Well you know I have a love, a love for everyone I knowAnd you know I have a drive to live I won't let goBut can you see this opposition, comes rising up sometimes?That it's dreadfull and position, comes blacking in my mind
And there I see a darknessAnd there I see a darknessAnd there I see a darknessAnd there I see a darknessDid you know how much I love you?Here's a hope that somehow youCan save me from this darkness
Well I hope that someday buddy, we'll have peace in our livesTogether or apart alone or with our wivesAnd we can stop our whoring and pull the smiles insideAnd light it up forever and never go to sleepMy best unbeaten brother, this isn't all I see
Oh no, I see your darknessOh no, I see your darknessOh no, I see your darknessOh no, I see your darknessDid you know how much I love you?Here's a hope that somehow youCan save me from this darkness
Well you know I have a love, a love for everyone I knowAnd you know I have a drive to live I won't let goBut can you see this opposition, comes rising up sometimes?That it's dreadfull and position, comes blacking in my mind
And there I see a darknessAnd there I see a darknessAnd there I see a darknessAnd there I see a darknessDid you know how much I love you?Here's a hope that somehow youCan save me from this darkness
Oh no, I see your darknessOh no, I see your darknessOh no, I see your darknessOh no, I see your darknessDid you know how much I love you?Here's a hope that somehow youCan save me from this darkness
