I See A Darkness Song Lyrics

Well, you’re my friend

And can you see

Many times, we’ve been out drinkin’

Many times we shared our thoughts

But did you ever, ever notice

The kind of thoughts I got.

*****

Well, you know I have a love

A love for everyone I know

And you know I have the drive

To live, I won’t let go.

*****

But can you see its opposition

Comes rising up sometimes?

That it’s dreadful imposition

Comes blacking in my mind.

*****

And that I see a darkness

And that I see a darkness

And that I see a darkness

And that I see a darkness

Did you know how much I love you?

Here’s a hope that somehow you

Can save me from this darkness..

*****

Well, I hope that someday, buddy

We have peace in our lives

Together or apart

Alone or with our wives..

*****

And we can stop our whoring

And pull the smiles inside

And light it up forever

And never go to sleep

My best unbeaten brother

This isn’t all I see..

*****

Oh no, I see a darkness

Oh no, I see a darkness

Oh no, I see a darkness

Oh no, I see a darkness

Did you know how much I love you?

Here’s a hope that somehow you

Can save me from this darkness..

I See A Darkness Song Chords




Well, you’re my friends.

And can you see?

Many times we’ve been out drinkin’,

Many times we shared our thoughts.

But did you ever,

Ever notice the kind of thoughts I got?
Am
Well, you know I have a love, a love for ev’ry – one I know.
Am
And you know I have a drive to live I won’t let go.

Well, can you see its opposition

Comes risin’ up sometimes,

That it’s dreadful imposition

Comes blacking in my mind,

And that I see a darkness,

And that I see a darkness,

And that I see a darkness,

And that I see a darkness?

Did you know how much I love you?

Here’s a hope that somehow you

Can save me from this darkness.

Well, I hope that someday buddy,

We have peace in our lives,
Together or apart,

Alone or with our wives,

And we can stop our whoring

And pull the smiles in – side

And light it up for – ever
Am
And never go to sleep

My best unbeaten brother,
Am
This isn’t all I seek.

Oh, no, I see a darkness,

Oh, no, I see a darkness,

Oh, no, I see a darkness,

Oh, no, I see a darkness,

Did you know how much I love you?

Here’s a hope that somehow you

Can save me from this darkness.
