[Verse 1]
Now the world is still
It's just been spinning out
Trapped inside my head
Feeling numb
And there's no song to sing
To save me from myself
[Refrain]
Fading into black
[Chorus]
We're all fighters, holding up our lighters
Chasing off the monsters, drowning in our sins
With every last breath, try to stop the sunset
Running with the shadows, darkness always wins
[Verse 2]
I make the same mistakes
And I can't change my ways

It's in my bones, a heart of stone
The cold, cold's creeping in
[Refrain]
I'm fading into black
[Chorus]
We're all fighters, holding up our lighters
Chasing off the monsters, drowning in our sins
With every last breath, try to stop the sunset
Running with the shadows, darkness always wins
Darkness always wins

We're all fighters, holding up our lighters
Chasing off the monsters, drowning in our sins
With every last breath, try to stop the sunset
Running with the shadows, darkness always wins
We're all fighters, holding up our lighters
Chasing off the monsters, drowning in our sins
With every last breath, try to stop the sunset
Running with the shadows, darkness always wins
Darkness always wins
[Outro]
