When I saw you on the ocean floor
Your face marbled from the beams above
And then I heard that voice callin' me on
So I swam down to reach you

And I know you're tied up and you wanna stay down
But you gotta know it's darkest before the dawn
And I know that it's hard and I know we all fall
But you gotta know it's darkest before the dawn

Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn (it's you, oh)
Darkest beforе the dawn, darkest beforе the dawn
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn (it's you, oh)

Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn (it's you, oh)
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn (it's you, oh)

In you, I found all of this gold
It's just the water made it look so green
Now let me bring you up to my world
I wanna show you all the things I've seen

And I know you're tied up and you wanna stay down
But you gotta know it's darkest before the dawn
And I know that it's hard and I know we all fall
But you gotta know it's darkest before the dawn

Can't you see it now?
Take my hand 'cause it's you
Blinded by the light, horizon
Take my hand 'cause it's darkest before the dawn

Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn (it's you, oh)
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn (it's you, oh)

Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn (it's you, oh)
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn (it's you, oh)

Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn (it's you, oh)
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn
Darkest before the dawn, darkest before the dawn (it's you, oh)
