Lyrics

Mmm… mmm… alone
In the dark… lord, in the dark


Old porch light flickers like it's givin' up the fight
Clouds in my coffee cup, another lonely night
Truck sits quiet in the driveway, keys still in my hand
Radio plays our song, but you ain't comin' back again
The dogs are sleepin' on the floor, they know better than to bark
Even they can feel this house is missin' half its heart

Every creak in these floorboards sounds like footsteps that ain't there
I talk to the silence like you're still standing there

Alone in the dark, where the memories cut like knives
Stars are shinin' through the window, but they don't feel alive
No one here to hold me, no one here to pray
I'm alone in the dark… and it's stealin' me away
Alone… alone… stealin' me away
In the dark… Lord, in the dark

Framed picture on the mantle, your smile I can't erase
Boots still by the back door in their same old place
I built this life for two, now it's just me and these four walls
Countin' headlights on the highway, waitin' for you to call
Bible on the nightstand, but the words won't bring you home
This bed feels like an ocean, and I'm drownin' here alone

Heart full of what-ifs, soul heavy as lead
Prayin' for the sunrise just to get you outta my head

Alone in the dark, where the memories cut like knives
Stars are shinin' through the window, but they don't feel alive
No one here to hold me, no one here to pray
I'm alone in the dark… and it's stealin' me away
Stealin' me… stealin' me
Away… away

What if this ache's all that's left of you and me
What if the dark's the only place I'll ever see
I close my eyes… but it's darker inside
Darker inside
Still can see… still can see

Alone in the dark, but I'm learnin' how to stand
With a bottle and a Bible in these trembling hands
Maybe I don't need savin', maybe I just need to stay
Even if I'm alone in the dark… I'll find my way

Find my way… find my way
In the dark… in the dark
Mmm… mmm… I'm still here

Alone… but breathin
In the dark… still breathin
Yeah, I'm still here
