It was 3am she turned to me and said
"are we trying to fight the darkness with more darkness?"
Through the heat of a midwest summer
Came the chill of breaking up
And as she drove away that morning I just watched
And that night she never called
I went stublin from bar to bar
Trying to fight the darkness with more darkness
Then I left for California 3 months after that bitter end
I did my best to catch the sunset when it came
That was her favorite time of day
She was the most I had ever loved
And that winter pa**ed two thousand miles apart
Why's it have to end the hard way?
What I learned from it is this
That you cannot fight the darkness with more darkness
