Holdin' on day by day
Standin' tall til my back breaks
Shakin' like an earthquake
All I know is I'll stay

Can't recall emergency
Just another casualty
All I feel is darkness
Pressing down on my chest

There are places I feel safest
This is not the situation

Black night one foot in the grave
Til the white light
Crashes on me where's my lifeline
Am I history
Give me one sign
I will survive

Black night
Black night

Feel the sense of urgency
Open heart surgery
Will you try and save me
Or leave my body bleeding
No one left running high
Open up I'm trapped inside
Let me go

Black night one foot in the grave
Til the white light
Crashes on me where's my lifeline
Am I history
Give me one sign
I will survive

Black night one foot in the grave
Til the white light
Crashes on me where's my lifeline
Am I history
Black night will fall
And follow me
There's no other way around

In my eyes can't you see
The fire's slowly burnin' out
There's too much pressure
In my chest
I can't breathe so I was short at every breath

Now I can't see
My own hands
But I'll run for my life
Run for my life

Black night one foot in the grave
Til the white light
Crashes on me where's my lifeline
Am I history
Give me one sign
I will survive

Black night one foot in the grave
Til the white light
Crashes on me where's my lifeline
Am I history
Black night
