Out of the Darkness Songtext
von Matthew and the Atlas

I saw you in my mind when I was younger
And I grew older and I say you still
You′d stay close to me, sometimes behind my shoulder
When I was weary trouble would come

In my last defense you tried to warn me
I did not know you, you were a demon to me
Your presence it was a fear that lived inside me
It grew around me then you would appear

Deep below the earth I might have found you
High above the tower I could not see
Deep below the earth I might have found you
High above the tower I could not see


I was dead and I was dying at your doorway
I did not see you, you did not appear
In-between the years I might have come to know you
But I don't own you, that much is clear

Deep below the earth I might have found you
High above the tower I could not see
Deep below the earth I might have found you
High above the tower I could not see

I was afraid someday you′d return
Unchanged at my door as you'd once been before
The flutter of fortune, our bringer of gloom
Out of the darkness and into my room

I was afraid someday you'd return
Unchanged at my door as you′d once been before
The flutter of fortune, our bringer of gloom
Out of the darkness
