[Verse 1]
Well, you're my friend, that's what you told me
And can you see what's inside of me?

[Verse 2]
Many times we've been out drinking
Many times we've shared our thoughts
But did you ever, ever notice
The kind of thoughts I got?

[Verse 3]
Well, you know I have a love
A love for everyone I know
And you know I have a drive
To live, I won't let go

[Pre-Chorus]
Could you see its opposition
Comes rising up sometimes
That its dreadful anteposition
Comes blacking in my mind

[Chorus]
And then I see a darkness
Oh no, I see in darkness
Now, I'm seeing darkness
And then I'll see a darkness
Did you know how much I love you?
Here's a hope that somehow you
Can save me from this darkness
[Verse 4]
Well, I hope that someday, buddy
We have peace in our lives
Together or apart
Alone or with our wives

[Verse 5]
And we can stop our whoring
And pull the smiles inside
And light it up forever
And never go to sleep
My best unbeaten brother
This isn't all I see

[Chorus]
And then I see a darkness
Oh no, I see in darkness
Now, I'm seeing darkness
And then I'll see a darkness
Did you know how much I love you?
Here's a hope that some how you
Can save me from this darkness
