Darkness Carry Me Home

[Intro] [Verse 1] Darkness is calm, like a blanket on the night, It carries the mind to a softer kind of light. Waves keep rolling, rocking us slow, Holding us close, like our mothers did long ago. [Verse 2] But the doors come crashing, safe havens torn away, Peace we were promised don’t last another day. We pour from the vessel, moths to the flame, Falling like leaves, no two lives the same. [Chorus] Faces of brothers, frozen in time, Fear in their eyes, regret in their minds. The world turns grey, the sound drifts low, Only the heartbeats… pounding as I go. [Verse 3] My feet still carry me, though I can’t feel the ground, My hands keep moving, when the fire rains down. Flashes of pain fill the darkened skies, But I march on steady, though death walks nearby. [Chorus] Faces of brothers, frozen in time, Fear in their eyes, regret in their minds. The world turns grey, the sound drifts low, Only the heartbeats… pounding as I go. [Bridge] Then the beats grow quiet, the dark returns, The peace I needed, at last I’ve earned. I see the fallen, reaching for me, Their eyes hold warmth, setting my soul free. [Final Chorus] Faces of brothers, calling me home, No more fear, I’m not alone. The world turns grey, but now I know… Darkness has come, to carry me home. [Outro]
