Mark Mallman - Fight the Darkness With More Darkness lyrics

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
