about

Original Midwestern rock n' roll.

lyrics

I hope what I heard is true
It’s darkest before the dawn
‘Cause I don’t know how much longer
I can just sit back and hold on

Well I’ve been down before
But never quite like this
The light seems to have just slipped away
And this midnight feels endless

It’s tough out here
It’s cold when you’re alone
It’s tough out here
I know it’s darkest before the dawn

(Chorus)
It’s darkest, darkest before the dawn
Here comes the sun
And the pain’s moving on
It’s darkest before the dawn

If the early bird gets the worm
Then I’d have been full by now
I keep trying despite the odds
That have been holding me down

But I’m gonna climb that wall
I ain’t gonna stop
I’m gonna feel the light on my face
When I make it to the top

It’s tough out here
It’s cold when you’re alone
It’s tough out here
I know it’s darkest before the dawn

(Chorus)

Well I remember when I dreamed of the sun
As it shined on perfect day
Now there’s a darkness to the edge of the night
That takes my breath away

Now I pray for the light, I pray for the light
I pray for the light to shine on me

(Chorus)

It’s darkest, darkest before the dawn
