Composer : Ryan Andrew Seewald

Darkness isn't out to do you well

Who would think

That all these thoughts with which we played

All these choices we have made

Would get us here?

The world we live in's awfully dark

And we could blame it on our heart

'Cause aren't we all just like the criminals

Who trick their minds to justify what's in their head

When the darkness comes don't betray yourself

Don't betray yourself for it

'Cause the darkness isn't out to do you well

When the darkness comes don't betray yourself

Don't betray yourself for it

'Cause the darkness isn't out to do you well

I know you know what you're thinkin'

I know you know that it ain't good

Don't you think it's odd? (Odd, odd, odd?)

Don't you think it's strange? (Ay, ay, ay?)

That after all this time the world is filled with hate

When the darkness comes don't betray yourself

Don't betray yourself for it

'Cause the darkness isn't out to do you well

When the darkness comes with a tempting thought

Don't betray us all for it

'Cause the darkness only comes to bring us hell
