Guess I'll go out on my own
I know it is a lonesome road
I know it is the path untook
I know but still I'll go

As I wander through the dark
She beckons me away from harm
To what do I owe this lucky charm
Alas I do not know

She names no price no cost no debt
I know the toll is in my head
Oh curse this wretched empty bed
I know why you must go

I'll go
Down into the darkness I'll descend
Guided by the words of a good friend
Buried to my neck in quicksand
I know but still I'll go
I know but still I'll go

Guess I'll go out on my own
I know it is a lonesome road
I know it is the path untook

Oh carry me away from here
There is no joy, there is no cheer
How shall I conquer this fear
Alas I do not know

And unlike the prophets did suggest
All will be welcome there instead
The cursed demon finally dead

And so
Down into the darkness I'll descend
Guided by the words of a good friend
Buried to my neck in quicksand

I don't want that dream to ever end
And I'm sure that someday we'll meet again
But I never sent that letter that I penned
Walk with me through the darkness hand in hand
Walk with me through the darkness hand in hand
Walk with me through the darkness hand in hand
