Darkest Hour - Charlotte OC, Way Out West

It wasn’t meant to be like this

A life for someone else

There’s a road to the righteous

That doesn’t lead through hell

There’s a drop on your eyelid

That stays just for him

There’s a scream in your silence

That doesn’t let anyone in

Now you don’t understand why you stayed

As you wake in the coffin he made you

You’re a stone that’s been thrown in the lake

Now you’re sinking, it sinks in

In the top of the tower

The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you

In the darkest of hours

We pray, pray for you

I know you’ve been locked up there

With no hope anywhere

In the top of the tower

The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you

Now you lay in the ashes

Of the house you built

Out of old books and matches

But you lay there still

In the town of black magic

And they’re out to kill

Here’s my heart, you can have it

And you always will

Now you don’t understand why you stayed

As you wake in the coffin he made you

You’re a stone that’s been thrown in the lake

Now you’re sinking, it sinks in

In the top of the tower

The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you

In the darkest of hours

We pray, pray for you

I know you’ve been locked up there

With no hope anywhere

In the top of the tower

The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

It wasn’t meant to be like this

A life for someone else

There’s a road to the righteous

That doesn’t lead through hell

Oh oh oh

In the top of the tower

The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you

In the darkest of hours

We pray, pray for you

I know you’ve been locked up there

With no hope anywhere

In the top of the tower

The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you

In the top of the tower

The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you

In the darkest of hours

We pray, pray for you

I know you’ve been locked up there

But go open your way

In the top of the tower

The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you
