I've written songs (in the dark)
I've felt inspired (in the dark)
I hide myself (in the dark)
Used to be afraid (of the dark)
Those in the light know we die (in the dark)

There's only artificial light here
My flaws hide well here
I used to be afraid of cluttered noises
Now I'm afraid of silence

Fill this space, idle words

I'm scared to death of light and silence
Jesus kill me inside this
Raise me up to live again
Like You did, like You did

Now I'm mute, despite myself
All of them are gone
The silence overtakes me
The idle words forsake me and I am left to face me

I'm held accountable for every idle word
Curse the idle words

I'm scared to death of light and silence
Jesus kill me inside this
Raise me up to live again
Like You did, like You did

Glory shows up, exposes us
I'm naked here, forsaken here
By the dark, by the dark

I'm scared to death of light and silence
Jesus kill me inside this
Raise me up to live again
Like You did, like You did
