Horrorshow - Before the Dawn lyrics

It’s darkest before the dawn
So right now I’m tryna hold on
The calm before the storm
Is when you gotta learn to be strong

It’s like I don’t know where to start
'cause there’s so much to say
Had this pain up in my heart
When I woke up today
Tell myself this too shall pass, be calm
It’s just a phase but the breath inside my
Chest is getting tight
Thinking that I just might suffocate
Walking underneath these city lights
All I see is strangers’ faces
And I wonder what would it be like
If I could just try trading places
Would the world look any clearer when
I looked into the mirror?
Or are they the same as me? Just staring
Hating their reflection (Question)


Vision is clouded
Feeling alone in this room
That’s so crowded right?
Thinking as dark as the cloud that is hanging
Up over my head like the powerlines
Feeling surrounded, no way around it
Knowing that I got a mountain to climb
I wanna shout it
Think I am going up out of my mind

It’s darkest before the dawn
So right now I’m tryna hold on
The calm before the storm
Is when you gotta learn to be strong
'Cause no one’s gotta take this weight
For me hope someone’s gonna say a prayer
For me (Somebody say a prayer for me)

Why I’m getting this high? Why
I’m feeling this low? Why
I’m living this lie? Why can’t I let go?
I got nowhere to hide, I
Can’t take it no more
Am I losing my mind? What I’m doing this for?
I just don’t know (I just don't know)
I just don’t know (I just don't know)
Why I’m getting this high? Why
I’m feeling this low? Why
I’m living this lie? Why can’t I let go?
I got nowhere to hide, I
Can’t take it no more
Am I losing my mind? What I’m doing this for?
I just don’t know (I just don't know)
I just don’t know (I just don't know)

Man, I swear this life will eat you up
I swear this life will wear ya down
We all got pain up in our hearts
All got things we’re scared about
See we were taught to hold it in
Gotta find a way to let it out
Roll another joint and light it up
Write another page and tear it out
Now all those voices in your head
Making noise and getting loud
That’ll make you feel like giving up
Make you feel like checking out
Got me feeling like a missing person
Like no one knows my whereabouts
I should know that people care about me
They’re the same ones I care about
But right now my mind is playing
Tricks and telling lies, scheming
Tryna take control of me
If I lose then I’ma pay the price
Got me scared to even go to sleep
Tonight if I should die before I wake
Dunno how much more that I can take
Praying I can just hold on until
The light of morning breaks

It’s darkest before the dawn
So right now I’m tryna hold on
The calm before the storm
Is when you gotta learn to be strong
'Cause no one’s gotta take this weight
For me hope someone’s gonna say a prayer
For me (Somebody say a prayer for me)

Why I’m getting this high? Why
I’m feeling this low? Why
I’m living this lie? Why can’t I let go?
I got nowhere to hide, I
Can’t take it no more
Am I losing my mind? What I’m doing this for?
I just don’t know (I just don't know)
I just don’t know (I just don't know)
Why I’m getting this high? Why
I’m feeling this low? Why
I’m living this lie? Why can’t I let go?
I got nowhere to hide, I
Can’t take it no more
Am I losing my mind? What I’m doing this for?
(Somebody)
I just don’t know (I just don't know)
I just don’t know (I just don't know)

Somebody
