about

The protagonist is struggling with a dark, demoralizing view of the world and his place in it. He wants to know that this is just the "darkness before the dawn".

lyrics

What do you want from this life?
You say you don't know, but I think you
Your silence cuts just like a knife
You know how much I'd like to speak to you

You saw the fear in my eyes
I tried to put on some transparent play
You saw right through my poor disguise
When will the darkness in me start to fade away?

Oh, no! Don't tell me that the sun won't rise
Oh, no! Don't tell me that the Love is gone
Tell me the night is darkest just before the dawn

You saw the fear in my eyes
I tried to put on some transparent play
You saw right through my poor disguise
When will the darkness in us give way to the day?

Oh, no! Don't tell me that the sun won't rise
Oh, no! Don't tell me that the Love is gone
Tell me the night is darkest just before the dawn
