Into the Dark

Melissa Etheridge

There were stairs they were steep
I was falling falling deep 
You were there you were small 
There was screaming down the hall

I've been here sleeping all these years 

There comes a time we all know 
There's a place that we must go
Into the soul into the heart 
Into the dark 

There was fire there was death
There was lying on your breath
I turned away I would pretend 
But the burning never ends 

I've been here sleeping all these years 

There was a wave over the house 
There was fear choked in my mouth 
You were there you left your mark 
As I stumbled in the dark
