I thought I stood on solid ground, But it's crumbling beneath me, How much did you think I could take, I could never be what you wanted, I just want to let go, Tired of trying and falling, You pushed and pulled me under, Just to make your life better, I looked for light, Instead nothing but darkness consumed me, Dark before dawn is what they say, But how long can you look for light, Before giving into the dark.

Dark before Dawn
I thought I stood on solid ground, But it's crumbling beneath me, How much did you think I could take, I could never be what you wanted, I just want to let go, Tired of trying and falling, You pushed and pulled me under, Just to make your life better, I looked for light, Instead nothing but darkness consumed me, Dark before dawn is what they say, But how long can you look for light, Before giving into the dark.
