Tried to believe, but felt I died
I gave it up, I turned away
Those were my darkest days
I looked for answers, they never came
I gave it up, I turned away
All those were my darkest days
the flame would burn so strong sometimes
The shadows fell on my head
And I'll be standing in this place,
By the grace of God, I know at last
I'm here, and look at that
Oh, those were my darkest days
Down on the ground, I came undone
Felt like a ghost whose time had come
I gave it up, I turned away
Oh, those were my darkest
And boy, I always kept a light
inside a light to keep my sanity
The flame would burn so small sometimes,
the shadows would never lie
Now I'm standing in this place,
By the grace of God, I know at last
I'm here and nothing more
Oh, those were my darkest days
Those were my darkest days
