Lyrics

The dark has chased the sun out of the sky every evening We’re helpless in its hands we know Like the waves that pull the moon closer to their breathing We’re not brave enough to go it alone Alone With all the things in life that I had wished were different I’ve grown indifferent to change And moss that’s growing heavy on my porch and down my sidewalk Is creeping in on memory lane When the wishbone hangs around your neck It reminds me of the luck that we never get It’s like a two-leaf clover Searching for missing parts We’re lost somewhere… In the dark I’m filling in the gaps of life’s unanswered questions It finds me right back where we started The full circle that we have come to know and depend upon Won’t help me break this chain apart When the guilt that I carry on my back Is heavier than the things that I know I lack It’s time to walk in shadows Find the missing parts That are lost out there… In the dark When the wishbone hangs around your neck It reminds me of the luck that we never get It’s like a two-leaf clover Searching for missing parts We’re lost somewhere… In the dark In the dark In the dark Copyright 2011 Brian Paul Bateman
