Hands of Mine - In the Dark Pt. I by Michael Day Music Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And I watched myself run into the dark, away from all the ones I’ve loved
And I watched myself, run into the bush, away from all the good I’ve known
But I was young and callow
And it got the best of me
In my head was peccadillo
But it still haunts me in the night
[Pre Chorus]
Cause I’m in the dark
And I’ve swum way past the shallows
I thought this was good 'till the waves crashed over my head
[Chorus]
Sinkin' fast, inside my head I see a dead man walkin' and stumblin'
Take a breath, this ship is goin' down
Oh the mess of these hands of mine
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
And I told myself, I was through with this, cajole myself to it once more
Somebody else will have to deal with this apathetic narcissist somehow
Intently harrow
And see the grief you leave
And the field that you level
With excuse and fantasy of lies
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause I’m in the dark
And I’ve swum way past the shallows
I thought this was good 'till the waves crashed over my head
[Chorus]
Sinkin' fast, inside my head I see a dead man walkin' and stumblin'
Take a breath, this ship is goin' down
Oh the mess of these hands of mine
[Bridge]
I don’t know why, but I’m goin'
Corrupted by the lies that I’ve been thinkin'
Enticed by my own desire, it’s sin conceivin'
Death I am bearing and death it shall come, the morning sun rises, I simply can’t run away
And death I am bearing and death it shall come, I simply can’t run away
Death I am bearing and death it shall come, I simply can’t run away
And I watched myself run into the dark, away from all the ones I’ve loved
And I watched myself, run into the bush, away from all the good I’ve known
But I was young and callow
And it got the best of me
In my head was peccadillo
But it still haunts me in the night
[Pre Chorus]
Cause I’m in the dark
And I’ve swum way past the shallows
I thought this was good 'till the waves crashed over my head
[Chorus]
Sinkin' fast, inside my head I see a dead man walkin' and stumblin'
Take a breath, this ship is goin' down
Oh the mess of these hands of mine
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
And I told myself, I was through with this, cajole myself to it once more
Somebody else will have to deal with this apathetic narcissist somehow
Intently harrow
And see the grief you leave
And the field that you level
With excuse and fantasy of lies
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause I’m in the dark
And I’ve swum way past the shallows
I thought this was good 'till the waves crashed over my head
[Chorus]
Sinkin' fast, inside my head I see a dead man walkin' and stumblin'
Take a breath, this ship is goin' down
Oh the mess of these hands of mine
[Bridge]
I don’t know why, but I’m goin'
Corrupted by the lies that I’ve been thinkin'
Enticed by my own desire, it’s sin conceivin'
Death I am bearing and death it shall come, the morning sun rises, I simply can’t run away
And death I am bearing and death it shall come, I simply can’t run away
Death I am bearing and death it shall come, I simply can’t run away
