[Verse 1]
DmInto the darkness soon you'll be sinking

DmAll of your friends have been trying to warn you
That Amsome of your demons are dying to drag you
[Chorus]
AwDmay (Into the darkness) into the darkness. Into the darkness away.

DmNo wonder no one could ever get near you
You're Amscreaming too loud no one can hear you

[Verse 1]

Into the darkness soon you'll be sinking

What are you doing? What can you be thinking

All of your friends have been trying to warn you

That some of your demons are dying to drag you

[Chorus]

Away (Into the darkness) into the darkness. Into the darkness away.

[Verse 2]

All of your life you've been making your payments

Alone on the phone with your business arrangements

No wonder no one could ever get near you

You're screaming too loud no one can hear you

[Bridge]

I see you coming to the end of the day

And was it worth it? No one can say

Dm Am7

I see your face it is ghostly pale

G F G F Dm

Into the sunset we are watching you sail

[Verse 3]

Temperature's rising over the rainbow

What are you hiding? Afraid of your shadow

We have been trying, trying to find you

There's no use denying our love is behind you

[Chorus]

Stay out of the darkness. Out of the darkness stay. Stay.
